Problem
If the angle of a triangle are in the ratio , then show that the sides opposite to the respective angle are in the ratio .Intuitive explanation
The angles are in ratio , which means you can write them as , , and —and since they sum to , you can solve for their actual values. Once you know the angles, use the sine rule () to connect each side to its opposite angle. The ratio of the sides will be determined entirely by the ratio of the sines of those angles.
