options: Understand and apply the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines to find unknown measurements in right and non-right triangles (e.g., surveying problems, resultant forces).

Prove the Laws of Sines and Cosines and use them to solve problems.

Derive the formula A = 1/2 ab sin(C) for the area of a triangle by drawing an auxiliary line from a vertex perpendicular to the opposite side.
problem_activity: Explain why
$${\frac{1}{2}ab\mathrm{sin}(C)}$$
gives the area of a triangle with sides
$$a$$
and
$$b$$
and included angle
$$C$$
.
