    Zachary Kim solved for the angles and side lengths of two triangles on February 28th, 2020. The first triangle had angles of 43.3°, 89°, and 47.7° and side lengths of 266, 388, and 287. The second triangle drawn to scale in a classroom had angles of 89.1°, 62.2°, 28.7° and side lengths of 66.04, 58.42, 31.75 cm. Zachary used trigonometric functions like cosine, sine and inverse sine to solve for the missing values in both triangles.
