  2. Spherical trigonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_trigonometry

    Case 3: two sides and an opposite angle given (SSA). The sine rule gives C and then we have Case 7. There are either one or two solutions. Case 4: two angles and an included side given (ASA). The four-part cotangent formulae for sets (cBaC) and (BaCb) give c and b, then A follows from the sine rule. Case 5: two angles and an opposite side given ...

  3. Opposite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposite

    Complementary antonyms are word pairs whose meanings are opposite but whose meanings do not lie on a continuous spectrum (push, pull). Relational antonyms are word pairs where opposite makes sense only in the context of the relationship between the two meanings ( teacher , pupil ).

  4. Law of tangents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_tangents

    Once an angle opposite a known side is computed, the remaining side c can be computed using the law of sines. In the time before electronic calculators were available, this method was preferable to an application of the law of cosines c = √ a 2 + b 2 − 2 ab cos γ , as this latter law necessitated an additional lookup in a logarithm table ...

  5. Hinge theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinge_theorem

    In geometry, the hinge theorem (sometimes called the open mouth theorem) states that if two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, and the included angle of the first is larger than the included angle of the second, then the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the second triangle. [1]

  6. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    The opposite or facing sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure. The congruence of opposite sides and opposite angles is a direct consequence of the Euclidean parallel postulate and neither condition can be proven without appealing to the Euclidean parallel postulate or one of ...

  7. Law of cosines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_cosines

    Given two sides and their included angle in a scalene triangle, he proposed finding the third side by dropping a perpendicular from the vertex of one of the unknown angles to the opposite base, reducing the problem to finding the legs of one right triangle from a known angle and hypotenuse using the law of sines and then finding the hypotenuse ...

    The most recent string of southern Illinois counties supporting secession included Calhoun, Clinton, Greene, Iroquois, Jersey, Madison, and Perry, all of which voted to secede from the state in ...

    The opposite of him is the Nāstika." [ 5 ] [ 25 ] Similarly the widely studied 2nd–3rd century CE Buddhist philosopher Nagarjuna , in Chapter 1 verses 60–61 of Ratnāvalī, wrote Vaiśeṣika and Sāṃkhya schools of Hinduism were Nāstika, along with Jainism, his own school of Buddhism and Pudgalavadins ( Vātsīputrīya ) school of ...
