Triangle Sides and Area from Included Side and End Angles
Side a joins the vertices carrying β and γ. It lies opposite the computed angle α. The side lengths follow the sine law, and the area uses the included-angle triangle formula.

How to use this calculator
- Enter the known values in the units shown. Results update as you type.
- Where results are editable, change one to solve backwards. Lock a value to hold it fixed.
- Use the worked example to check the method. Reset restores the starting fields.

Formula and method
Example in initial displayed units: a 4, Angle β 30, Angle γ 60 gives Angle α 90, b 2, c 3.464102, Area 3.464102.
α = π−β−γ; b/a = sin β/sin α; area = ab sin γ/2
Worked example
Enter these known values and leave the other values blank.
- a
- 4 cm
- Angle β
- 30 deg
- Angle γ
- 60 deg
- Angle α
- 90 deg
- b
- 2 cm
- c
- 3.464 cm
- Area
- 3.464 cm²
Assumptions and limitations
- Side a lies between β and γ and opposite α. Enter the included side and its two endpoint angles. Other side lengths, the remaining angle and area are one-way, read-only results.
- Use compatible units and enough independent values. Clear unknowns before solving backward. Original reference drawings are schematic and do not scale to entered values.
Common questions
Which side is between the two entered angles?
Side a joins the vertices carrying β and γ. It lies opposite the computed angle α. The side lengths follow the sine law, and the area uses the included-angle triangle formula.

Use exact π angle boundaries and valid geometric bounds for the documented model; rounded π ceilings can incorrectly reject near-straight valid triangles. The international acre is exactly 43560 square international feet; Bookify replaces the rounded captured area factor.
