In trigonometry, the law of sines, sine law, sine formula, or sine rule is an equation relating the lengths of the sides of any shaped triangle to the sines of its angles. According to the law, : where , and are the lengths of the sides of a triangle, and , and are the opposite angles (see the figure to the right), while is the diameter of the triangle's circumcircle. When the last of these equations is not used, the law is sometimes stated using the reciprocals; : The law of sines can be used to compute the remaining sides of a triangle when two angles and a side are known—a technique known as triangulation. Numerical calculation using this technique may result in a numerical error if an angle is close to 90 degrees. It can also be used when two sides and one of the non-enclosed angles are known. In some such cases, the triangle is not uniquely determined by this data (called the ''ambiguous case'') and the technique gives two possible values for the enclosed angle. The law of sines is one of two trigonometric equations commonly applied to find lengths and angles in scalene triangles, with the other being the law of cosines. The law of sines can be generalized to higher dimensions on surfaces with constant curvature 〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=mathworld )〕 ==Proof== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Law of sines」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
