Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Given a triangle with side a = 7 cm, side b = 10 cm, and angle A = 40°, use the Sine Rule to find angle B. State whether there are one or two possible solutions.
[3 marks]
2.
In a triangle, side a = 5 cm, side b = 8 cm, and angle A = 30°. Use the Sine Rule to determine possible values for angle B. Explain your reasoning.
[4 marks]
3.
A triangle has sides a = 6 cm, b = 10 cm, and angle A = 60°. Is it possible for this triangle to have two different possible angles B? Justify your answer.
[3 marks]
4.
Construct a triangle with side a = 4 cm, side b = 7 cm, and angle A = 50°, then use the Sine Rule to find angle B. Indicate how multiple solutions might occur.
[4 marks]
5.
A surveyor measures side a = 9 m, side b = 12 m, and angle A = 70°. Determine if there are zero, one, or two possible solutions for angle B, and explain why.
[4 marks]
6.
Given side a = 8 cm, side b = 5 cm, and angle A = 130°, find all possible angles B using the Sine Rule. How many solutions are there?
[3 marks]
7.
A triangle has side a = 10 cm, side b = 15 cm, and angle A = 60°. Use the Sine Rule to find the possible angles B, considering the ambiguous case.
[4 marks]
8.
A construction involves sides a = 6 cm, b = 9 cm, and angle A = 45°. After constructing the triangle, determine how many solutions exist for angle B and explain why.
[4 marks]
9.
Solve for angle B if side a = 5 cm, side b = 8 cm, and angle A = 50°, and verify whether the ambiguous case applies.
[3 marks]
10.
A triangle with side a = 7 cm, side b = 10 cm, and angle A = 35° shows two possible solutions for angle B. Calculate both and discuss how to determine if the second solution is valid in the context of the triangle.
