The sum of the sines of two angles A and B is 3/2 while
the sum of the cosines of the angles is √3 /2 . Find A
This problem relates to law of sin and cos. How would the triangle be drawn?
Given any triangle, there are two cases when the sine law can be used. Determine
the scenarios when the sine law can be used and explain why it works to solve for
the unknown sides and angles.
