GCSE Maths (9-1) Trigonometry - Non-RIght-Angled

The document discusses trigonometry for non-right angled triangles. It explains how to use the cosine rule to find sides of a triangle given two sides and the included angle, or to find angles given all three sides. It also explains how to use the sine rule to find a side given one side and two angles, or to find an angle given two sides and one angle.
