as follows : Hav-ing one angle of a triangle, the sn^/i of the two remaining OBLIQUE-ANGLED TRIANGLES. 527 angles is obtained by subtracting the given angle from180° — the sum of the three angles. Then with equation (203.) the difference of the two anglesis obtained. And then, having the sum and… … C {= 105°) the angle included between the given sides, a andd. The sum of the two angles A and B, therefore, will be— {A+B) = 180- 105 =^75°, and the half of the sum of A and B \s ^- = 37° 30. The sum of the given sides is 36 + 27 = 63, and their dif-ference is 36 — 27 = 9. Then from equation…
