Sine rule:
In any triangle the length of the side is proportional to the sine of the angle opposite to it. (or) \(
\frac{a}
{{\sin A}} = \frac{b}
{{\sin B}} = \frac{c}
{{\sin C}}
\)
Proof: In \(
\Delta ABD,\sin A = \frac{{h_1 }}
{c} \Rightarrow h_1 = cSinA
\) .......... (1)
In \(
\Delta BDC,\sin C = \frac{{h_1 }}
{a} \Rightarrow h_1 = aSinC
\) .............(2)
From (1) and (2) c sin A = a sin C (or) \(
\frac{c}
{{\sin C}} = \frac{a}
{{\sin A\,}}\,\,\,\,....................(3)
\)
From \(
\Delta \,ACE,\,\,\sin C = \frac{{h_2 }}
{b} \Rightarrow h_2 = b\,\sin C
\) .........(4)
\(
\Delta \,ABE,\,\,\sin (180^0 - B) = \frac{{h_2 }}
{C} \Rightarrow h_2 = c\,\sin \left( {180^0 - B} \right) = c\,\sin B
\)
\(
\Rightarrow h_2 = c\,\sin B
\) ................................ (5)
From (4) and (5) b sin C = c sin B (or) \(
\frac{b}
{{\sin B}} = \frac{c}
{{\sin C}}\,\,\,\,....................\left( 6 \right)
\)
from (3) and (6) \(
\frac{a}
{{\sin A}} = \frac{b}
{{\sin B}} = \frac{c}
{{\sin C}}
\)
