Proof of the Law of Sines
The Law of Sines states that for any triangle ABC, with sides a,b,c (see below)
a
sin A
=
b
sin B
=
c
sin C
For more see Law of Sines.
Acute triangles
Draw the altitude h from the vertex A of the triangle
From the definition of the sine function
sin B =
h
c
a n d sin C =
h
b
or
h = c sin B a n d h = b sin C
Since they are both equal to h
c sin B = b sin C
Dividing through by sinB and then sinC
c
sin C
=
b
sin B
Repeat the above, this time with the altitude drawn from point B
Using a similar method it can be shown that in this case
c
sin C
=
a
sin A
Combining (4) and (5) :
a
sin A
=
b
sin B
=
c
sin C

Obtuse Triangles
The proof above requires that we draw two altitudes of the triangle. In the case of obtuse triangles, two of the altitudes are outside the triangle, so we need a slightly different proof. It uses one interior altitude as above, but also one exterior altitude.
First the interior altitude. This is the same as the proof for acute triangles above.
Draw the altitude h from the vertex A of the triangle
sin B =
h
c
a n d sin C =
h
b
or
h = c sin B a n d h = b sin C
Since they are both equal to h
c sin B = b sin C
Dividing through by sinB and then sinC
c
sin C
=
b
sin B
Draw the second altitude h from B. This requires extending the side b:
The angles BAC and BAK are supplementary, so the sine of both are the same.
(see Supplementary angles trig identities)
Angle A is BAC, so
sin A =
h
c
or
h = c sin A
In the larger triangle CBK
sin C =
h
a
or
h = a sin C
From (6) and (7) since they are both equal to h
c sin A = a sin C
Dividing through by sinA then sinC:
a
sin A
=
c
sin C
Combining (4) and (9):
a
sin A
=
b
sin B
=
c
sin C

Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- We will use the basic formulas for calculating the volumes of two solid bodies.
- The volume of a cylinder ( V_l ) is represented by:
- Similarly, the volume of cone ( V_c ) is represented by:
Where,
r : The radius of cylinder / radius of circular base of the cone
h : The height of the cylinder / cone
- We will investigate the correlation between the volume of each of the two bodies wit the radius ( r ). We will assume that the height of cylinder/cone as a constant.
- We will represent a proportionality of Volume ( V ) with respect to ( r ):
Where,
C: The constant of proportionality
- Hence the proportional relation is expressed as:
V∝ r^2
- The volume ( V ) is proportional to the square of the radius. Now we will see the effect of multiplying the radius ( r ) with a positive number ( a ) on the volume of either of the two bodies:
- Hence, we see a general rule frm above relation that multiplying the result by square of the multiple ( a^2 ) will give us the equivalent result as multiplying a multiple ( a ) with radius ( r ).
- Hence, the relations for each of the two bodies becomes:
