If you provide sufficient information Triangle Solver will complete the unknown angles and lengths of a triangle.
Triangle Solver will complete any SAA, SSA, SSS, SSA, and some SAS triangles.
Note: Triangle solver will solve for only one set of answers for a SSA (the ambiguous case) triangle if it has two sets of answers.
Note: Triangle Solver will not solve a SAS triangle inwhich the given angle is not 90í. (I am working on this.)
_How to Use It_:
You *need* *Microsoft Excel 4.0* or a program that can convert Excel documents.
Open Triangle Solver v1.1. (Triangle Solver should already have a 3-4-5 triangle in it.)
Enter your known information in cells B3:B8. (The blue cells if you have a color monitor.)
Note: Angles should be entered in degrees!
Note: Entering conflicting information such as A=90í, B=90í, C=90í will just mess up your answer, or entering too much information can mess up your answer as well.
╩
Your completed triangle's information should appear in cells D3:D8. (The green cells if you have a color monitor.)
Note: If your information is incomplete or your triangle can't exist cells D3:D8 should appear as either "More?" or an error such as "#DEV/0" or "#NUM!".
