Calculate Side B of Triangle







Formula

The formula to calculate the Side B of Triangle (Sb) is:

\[ S_b = \sqrt{S_a^2 + S_c^2 - 2 \cdot S_a \cdot S_c \cdot \cos(\angle B)} \]

Where:

Definition

Side B of Triangle is the length of the side B of the three sides. In other words, the side B of the Triangle is the side opposite to the angle B.

Side A of Triangle is the length of the side A, of the three sides of the triangle. In other words, the side A of the Triangle is the side opposite to the angle A.

Side C of Triangle is the length of the side C of the three sides. In other words, side C of the Triangle is the side opposite to angle C.

Angle B of Triangle is the measure of the wideness of two sides that join to form the corner, opposite to side B of the Triangle.

How to calculate the Side B of Triangle

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ S_b = \sqrt{S_a^2 + S_c^2 - 2 \cdot S_a \cdot S_c \cdot \cos(\angle B)} \]

Evaluating:

\[ S_b = \sqrt{10^2 + 20^2 - 2 \cdot 10 \cdot 20 \cdot \cos(0.698131700797601)} \]

The Side B of Triangle is 13.9133828651545.
