Formulas for calculation


Side b
\(\displaystyle b = \sqrt{a^2+c^2-2·a·c·cos(β)} \)

Angle α

\(\displaystyle α = acos\left(\frac{a^2-b^2-c^2}{-2·b· c} \right)\)

Angle γ
\(\displaystyle γ = 180°-β-α\)

Perimeter
\(\displaystyle P = a+b+c\)

Height
\(\displaystyle h = b· sin(γ)\)

Area
\(\displaystyle A = \frac{a·h}{2}\)
