Formula

C = 180° - A - B; a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

Where:

  • A,B,C=Triangle angles(°)
  • a,b,c=Opposite side lengths

Worked Examples

Known side a with two angles

Solve with A=50°, B=60°, and a=10.

  1. 1Compute C = 180 - 50 - 60 = 70°
  2. 2Use Law of Sines ratio based on known side a
  3. 3Find b ≈ 11.305159 and c ≈ 12.266816
  4. 4Compute perimeter and area from solved sides
Final Answer: a=10, b≈11.305159, c≈12.266816, C=70°

Known side b gives right triangle

Solve with A=30°, B=60°, and b=8.

  1. 1C = 90°
  2. 2Use b/sin(B) to scale side a and c
  3. 3Classify type from angles
Final Answer: Right triangle with C=90°

Known side c with obtuse angle

Solve with A=100°, B=30°, and c=9.

  1. 1C = 50°
  2. 2Use c/sin(C) as ratio
  3. 3Compute a and b and classify by largest angle
Final Answer: Obtuse triangle (one angle > 90°)

Introduction

This AAS triangle calculator solves a triangle from two angles and one known non-included side. It computes the third angle, all sides, area, perimeter, and triangle classification using the Law of Sines.

Formula and Method

The AAS Triangle Calculator uses the core relation C = 180° - A - B; a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C).

  • Apply the formula directly to user inputs

  • Compute intermediate terms when needed

  • Round numeric outputs for stable display

  • Return structured outputs for UI rendering

    angleA: Angle A (degrees)

  2. 2

    angleB: Angle B (degrees)

  3. 3

    knownSide: Known side

  4. 4

    knownSideValue: Known side length

Output Fields

The calculator returns: sideA, sideB, sideC, angleC, area, perimeter, triangleType.

Validation Rules

Angles must be positive with angleA + angleB < 180°, and knownSideValue must be positive.

  • Invalid or missing numeric values trigger safe fallback outputs

  • Error messaging is returned by the calculation function when constraints fail

  • Domain restrictions are enforced before formula evaluation

  • Rounding is applied to final numeric values

  • Reusable reference for manual calculations

FAQs

What does the AAS Triangle Calculator compute?

It computes sideA, sideB, sideC, angleC, area, perimeter, triangleType from the provided inputs.

Which inputs are required?

Required fields are angleA, angleB, knownSide, knownSideValue.

How are results rounded?

Numeric outputs are rounded by the calculation function (generally to about 6 decimal places) for cleaner display.

What if I enter invalid values?

Angles must be positive with angleA + angleB < 180°, and knownSideValue must be positive.

Which output should I read first?

Start with sideA, then use the remaining outputs for context and interpretation.

Can I use decimal values?

Yes. Decimal inputs are supported unless the calculator specifically requires integer-style values.
