Triangle calculator

This calculator applies the Law of Sines $~~ \dfrac{\sin\alpha}{a} = \dfrac{\cos\beta}{b} = \dfrac{cos\gamma}{c}~~$ and the Law of Cosines $ ~~ c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos\gamma ~~ $ to solve oblique triangles, i.e., to find missing angles and sides if you know any three of them.

The calculator shows all the steps and gives a detailed explanation for each step.
