I love the way you teach things! I accept the rules when I am taught them but proving them makes it soooo much better for learning maths. Thank you so much BPRP
Last year when our physics teacher taught us the definition of sine and cosine (he did it before we learn it in math and he only taught the definitions), the first test we get is to prove these two laws
I really loved how you gave that extra note that proving Law Of Cosines from pythagorean theorem is not circular reasoning because phythagorean already has like some 1000 proofs. Say a set of theorems, X, is used to prove Pythogorean. So X=> Pythogorean => Law of cosine => Pythogorean
You wanted us to prove the British flag theorem after the video. Here is my attempt. Let the vertical line passing through the red point have a lower segment with length h1 and an upper segment with length h2, such that h1 + h2 = h, and let the horizontal line passing through that same point have a left segment with length w1 and a right segment with w2, such that w1 + w2 = w. (w1)^2 + (h1)^2 = d^2 (w1)^2 + (h2)^2 = a^2 (w2)^2 + (h1)^2 = c^2 (w2)^2 + (h^2)^2 = b^2 a^2 + c^2 = (w1)^2 + (h2)^2 + (w2)^2 + (h1)^2 = (w1)^2 + (h1)^2 + (w2)^2 + (h2)^2 = d^2 + b^2 = b^2 + d^2. Therefore, a^2 + c^2 = b^2 + d^2. Q.E.D.
Be careful, the height can be outside of the triangle. Si you have 2 cases to study. For the 2nd theorem, you can use the scalar product by writing BC^2 = (BA + AC)^2 a^2 = c^2 + b^2 + 2BA.AC a^2=c^2 + b^2 + 2c.b.cos(BA,AC) a^2=c^2 + b^2 + 2c.b.cos(pi - a) Then a^2=c^2 + b^2 - 2c.b.cos(a) Quite easy isn't it? Hello from France, keep going!
actually it comes down to the same equation. if you let b2 to be equal to b+b1, where b1 is the segment outside of the triangle, then you get b1=b2-b => (b1)^2=(b2-b)^2 which is equal to (b-b2)^2 used in the original proof.
Your Law of Cosines proof is much, much more simple than the Stewart textbook, thank you! Edit: I am struggling to do this for the other sides, but will get some rest and try again.
Personally, I find BPRP's Law of Cosines proof rather fiddly. Here's my (I think simpler) version: Instead of b1 and b2, notice that b1 is c∙cos A, meaning b2 is (b - c∙cos A) Now apply Pythagoras to each of the two smaller triangles to give the height² : h² = c² - c²∙cos² A = a² - (b - c∙cos A)² = a² - b² + 2bc∙cos A - c²∙cos A The -c²∙cos A term cancels from each side; solve the rest for a²: c² = a² - b² + 2bc∙cos A ⇒ a² = b² + c² - 2bc∙cos A Your mileage, as they say, may vary.
Oops. It might have been clearer if I'd solved for c², as BPRP did - sorry. In that case, you start with b2 = a∙cos C and b1 = (b - a∙cos C) and proceed as before. Sorry.
I came here to learn the derivations of these two laws, because I was lazy when I was in class and i missed what my teacher had said about this. Thanks teacher!
Laws of sine/cosine are frequently used in calculus if you take higher course than pre-cal courses so it would be very useful to have some understanding about the proof of them as bluepenredpen illustrates in the video right here. Great representation! Basic geometrical understanding is also a plus to understand this proof!
I love how mathematics although theoretically universal still has dialects. My teachers would have had a fit of I'd use "sin A", because A is a Point, not an Angle. The angle had to be labeled independently, mostly α for the angle near A, β near B etc.
Here, it's pretty much a convention to use capital letters for angles and small corresponding letters for the sides opposite them in a triangle. This was exactly how we would have done it too. Though ig there's no harm in using alpha, beta either.
Really cool video. I originally proved law of sine the same way you presented, but in fact our text book provides method that also shows sinA/a = 1/2R where R is radius of a circle with points ABC on its perimeter(I don't know the word for it, English is not my first language). Btw. I enjoyed the bonus exercise. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
Perimeter sounds understandable. Though, maybe you could also just say 'lying on the circle', or speak of a circle going through those three points (after all, a circle is perfectly defined, if three or more points on it are known).
Circumscribed circle or circumcircle. Showing a/sin(A) = D is very simple it clearly doesn't matter which angle you use. I was very pleased with myself when I proved it. I wasn't very old :-)
A very well explained video. I tended to explain things qualitatively as most students have no patience for proofs when they learn this for the first time.
technically different diagrams need to be used if angles are obtuse. The formulae end up being the same though. for the sine rule: Draw triangle ABC such that angle BAC is obtuse (implying the other two angles are acute) and make point C due east of point A. Draw a perpendicular line from point B down to point D such that points D, A, and C are collinear. Connect D to A. Now we have created another triangle ABD such that angle ADB is a right angle and angle DAB is 180 - angle BAC (supplementary angles on straight line CD) sin(angle BAD) = BD/AB BD = AB*sin(angle BAD) BD = AB*sin(angle BAC) , since sine is positive in the second quadrant Notice we have a bigger triangle: triangle BDC Using this triangle to find sin(angle BCD) sin(angle BCD) = BD/BC BD = sin(angle BCD) * BC => sin(angle BCD)*BC = AB*sin(angle BAC), both were equal to BD Let angle BCD = C Let side AB opposite the angle C be c Let angle BAC = A Let side BC opposite the angle A be a => Sin(C)/c = Sin(A)/a to find a relation to sin(angle ABC), draw a line from point A to a point E such that point E is on the line BC and that AE is perpendicular to BC. let angle ABC = B let side AC opposite angle B be b This implies that in triangle AEC Sin(C) = AE/b , remember b = AC AE = sin(C)*b and in triangle AEB sin(B) = AE/c , remember c = AB AE = sin(B)*c therefore sin(C)*b = sin(B)*c since they're both equal to AE therefore Sin(C)/c = sin(B)/b therefore Sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b = Sin(C)/c given that angle A is obtuse. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- for the cosine rule: use the same construction from sine rule cos(angle BAD) = AD/AB (in triangle BAD) -cos(angle BAC) = AD/AB, (cosine in second quadrant is negative) AD = -AB*cos(A) , to be used for subsitution later on pythagoras on triangle BAD BD^2 + AD^2 = AB^2 BD^2 + (-AB*cos(A))^2 = AB^2 , substituting AD BD^2 + AB^2*(Cos(A))^2 = AB^2 BD^2 = AB^2 - AB^2(Cos(A))^2 , making BD^2 the subject BD^2 = AB^2(1-(Cos(A))^2) , factorising AB^2 as a common factor BD^2 = AB^2*(Sin(A))^2 , unit circle identity (BD to be used as substitution later on) pythagoras on triangle BDC DC^2 + BD^2 = BC^2 (AD+AC)^2 + BD^2 = BC^2 , the whole line DC is comprised of the two lines AD and AC added together (or DA and AC) AD^2 + 2AD*AC + AC^2 + BD^2 = BC^2 , binomial expansion (-AB*cos(A))^2 + 2(-AB*cos(A))*AC + AC^2 + AB^2*(Sin(A))^2 = BC^2 , substituting AD and BD AB^2(cos(A))^2 -2*AB*AC*Cos(A) + AC^2 + AB^2*(Sin(A))^2 = BC^2 AB^2((cos(A))^2 + (Sin(A))^2) - 2*AB*AC*Cos(A) + AC^2 = BC^2 , grouping like terms AB^2 together and factorising BC^2 = AB^2 + AC^2 - 2*AB*AC*Cos(A) , swapping LHS and RHS to make BC^2 the subject as well as rearranging terms. a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bcCos(A) , provided that angle A is obtuse. (AB = c, AC = b, BC = a)
One way to remember the law of cosines: if C is 0, cos C is 1, and c²=(a-b)², because your triangle is lines a and b on top of each other meeting at C and c is the line between the other two ends, so its length is the absolute value of the difference between the other two lengths. So the law of cosines is the square of a difference with a cosine thrown in.
Thank God for this man, I had the hardest time trying to prove the sine law as I couldn't figure out how to relate the top peak of the triangle or "B" with the other angles as h1 wasn't opposite to the angle. My biggest realization was that I should of drawn another parallel line and work out the two sines and relate them back to each other, thus proving the Sine law. :) happy to find this channel and may he keep uploading these awesome videos.
The triangle is drawn nicely so that more than one right angles can be made … In other drawing it’s not so obvious that another right angle can be made with a perpendicular line
For Law of Sine, you proved the equality for any two arbitrary sides. Wouldn't you automatically get that the equality is true for all 3 sides of the same triangle implicitly, given its true for any pair of sides in the same triangle?
12 Semitones The law of sines can be reexpressed as a/sin(A) = b/sin(B). Let d = a/sin(A) = b/sin(B). Hence d·sin(A) = a, and d·sin(B) = b. The above implies that (a - b)/(a + b) = [d·sin(A) - d·sin(B)]/[d·sin(A) + d·sin(B)] = [sin(A) - sin(B)]/[sin(A) + sin(B)]. By the sum-to-product identity, sin(A) + sin(B) = 2·sin[(A + B)/2]·cos[(A - B)/2], and this can be proven from the addition of angles identities for sines and cosines and inverting the equations. An analogous identity exists for subtraction. Thus, [sin(A) - sin(B)]/[sin(A) + sin(B)] = (2·sin[(A - B)/2]·cos[(A + B)/2])/(2·sin[(A + B)/2]·cos[(A - B)/2]) = (sin[(A - B)/2]/cos[(A - B)/2])/(sin[(A + B)/2]/cos[(A + B)/2]) = tan[(A - B)/2]/tan[(A + B)/2] = (a - b)/(a + b), or alternatively, tan[(A - B)/2]/(a - b) = tan[(A + B)/2]/(a + b)
We proved the Law of Sine in a much different and easier way at school. First we used the formula to obtain the measurement of a chord inside a circle through the sinus of the angle it formed multiplied by the diameter itself ( 2r*sin(A)), then as a second proof we used the theorem of the surface of a triangle ( 1/2 * c*b*sin(A) where A is the angle between c and b) and using this formula with all the other sides of the triangle, since the surface is the same, you end up with the law of sine. For the Law of cosine we used a further proof that isn't easy to explain.
Hi, blackpenredpen Thanks a lot for this vid!!! You are Awesome!!! Keep uploading the amazing vids I wanted to ask you If you have any tips for improving My ability to Prove theorems and formulas as I am very weak in the topic!!! Thanks in advance Yours sincerely, A random Subscriber :D
F(x) = sum (an(x-x0) ^n) All you need to do is find an. If you differentiate once and evaluate in x0 you find out that a1= f'(x0). Differentiate again and you find out a2=f''(x0) /2. Differentiate again and a3=f'''(x0) /6 and 6=3!. Keep going till a certain number until you notice an=f^n(x0) /n! Substitute that in the original sum and you found out that the coefficient an which best approximates the power series is that one. Plug it in and you got your "MacLovin" series 😂
My favorite proof of the Law of Sines is this: Let BX be a diameter of the circumcircle of triangle ABC. Now consider triangle BXC. It is a right triangle with BC = a, BX = 2R (where R is the radius of the circumcircle), and either angle BXC = A or angle BXC = 180 - A, depending on whether A is acute. Either way, sin(A) = sin(BXC) = a/2R, giving us **2R = a/sin(A)**. By symmetry, we also have b/sin(B) and c/sin(C) equaling 2R. Hence they equal each other.
Well done. When I was at school the text book showed how to get (SinA)/a = (SinC)/c but did not show us how to get the last part (and the teachers didnt know either) YET the reality is (as you have shown) that it is dead easy ! It goes to show you that a little bit of lateral thinking can sovle many a problem. EDIT : on second thought you have not demonstrated that a perpendicular from (or passing through) AB actually passes through angle C - rather you have merely drawn it that way. (try drawing AB as is but making AC longer and you dont get a perpendicular from AB passing through angle C and hence you dont get two right angled triangles in solving the second part when you extend it to solviong for (Sin B)/b ADDITIONAL EDIT : are the lenghts of AB and AC identical ? And if so then does this work for an iososceles triangle ? EDIT 3 It looks like your method should also work for equilateral triangles (but not for scalene triangles) ?
I feel like the proof for the law of sines is incomplete. Not all triangles have more than one altitude, yet the law of sines holds for all triangles. I think the area proof is much more compelling.
please prove the law of equal areas , it's a line and bunch of points spaced equally on the line and there are lines joining each point with the origin ,the law states that the areas created between the lines(the area of the triangles) are equal.
You can prove that by the theorem that triangle with equal bases and the same height have the same area. (Note:- This theorem is not really very hard to prove, it comes from the area of a triangle) Acc. To the problem, All points are equally spaced, Therefore, AA1=AA2=AA3=.....=An-1An (let the points be named A,A1,A2,....AAn) Now, Since all triangles have a common vertex O(the origin). The height dropped from the origin on any point on the line is common to all the triangles. Thus, all the areas are equal by the above stated theorem.
@@mannyheffley9551correct me if I'm wrong but nothing is mentioned about the height since the height must be perpendicular on the base and there is nothing that states that and I can't see something that will show this.
@@Muhammed_English314 yeah but the perpendicular you can drop from a common vertex of any two triangle are common for those two triangles. For eg:- you take a scalene triangle. Drop a perpendicular. Also construct a median intersecting the bade base at a point J. We observe that for both the triangles the perpendicular is common and they both have the same area.
@@mannyheffley9551 yes you can say that but since it's not an isosceles triangle the perpendicular will not have the segment between the three points so you can't say they have the same perpendicular AND one equal side(the bases of the two triangles which share the perpendicular)
@@Muhammed_English314 that's alright that doesn't matter. Area of a triangle= 1/2 * base* height Since the bases of both of the triangles are equal and the perpendicular is the same and is between the same parallels. Their area is equal.
Sir please can you solve for me: Two friends visit a restaurant during 5pm to 6 pm . Among the two ,whoever comes first waits for 15 min and then leave . The probability that they meet?
By reason of symmetry there is no need to repeat for h2 what was proved for h1. Just relabel letters, or permute them, or use (the groupe) axial symmetry. Not using arguments of symmetry is wrong, it makes the proof heavy, longer, inelegant, redondant and akward. Its a kind of violation of the "Principle of Least Action" (economy). Arguments of symmetry are extremely important since in real problems the complexity gets almost always so strong that there is no chance to solde the problem without using the helpful simplifications braught by the symmetries of the problem.

(w1)^2 + (h1)^2 = d^2
(w1)^2 + (h2)^2 = a^2
(w2)^2 + (h1)^2 = c^2
(w2)^2 + (h^2)^2 = b^2
a^2 + c^2 = (w1)^2 + (h2)^2 + (w2)^2 + (h1)^2 = (w1)^2 + (h1)^2 + (w2)^2 + (h2)^2 = d^2 + b^2 = b^2 + d^2.
Therefore, a^2 + c^2 = b^2 + d^2. Q.E.D.
Angel Mendez-Rivera perfect, as always!
I solved it the same way as you did, but you solved it with less steps. Good job, man!
Be careful, the height can be outside of the triangle.
Si you have 2 cases to study.
For the 2nd theorem, you can use the scalar product by writing BC^2 = (BA + AC)^2
a^2 = c^2 + b^2 + 2BA.AC
a^2=c^2 + b^2 + 2c.b.cos(BA,AC)
a^2=c^2 + b^2 + 2c.b.cos(pi - a)
Then
a^2=c^2 + b^2 - 2c.b.cos(a)
Quite easy isn't it?
Hello from France, keep going!
actually it comes down to the same equation. if you let b2 to be equal to b+b1, where b1 is the segment outside of the triangle, then you get b1=b2-b => (b1)^2=(b2-b)^2 which is equal to (b-b2)^2 used in the original proof.

Absolutely love the enthusiasm 👏🏾thank you for the help sir
technically different diagrams need to be used if angles are obtuse. The formulae end up being the same though.
for the sine rule:
Draw triangle ABC such that angle BAC is obtuse (implying the other two angles are acute) and make point C due east of point A.
Draw a perpendicular line from point B down to point D such that points D, A, and C are collinear.
Connect D to A.
Now we have created another triangle ABD such that angle ADB is a right angle and angle DAB is 180 - angle BAC (supplementary angles on straight line CD)
sin(angle BAD) = BD/AB
BD = AB*sin(angle BAD)
BD = AB*sin(angle BAC) , since sine is positive in the second quadrant
Notice we have a bigger triangle: triangle BDC
Using this triangle to find sin(angle BCD)
sin(angle BCD) = BD/BC
BD = sin(angle BCD) * BC
=> sin(angle BCD)*BC = AB*sin(angle BAC), both were equal to BD
Let angle BCD = C
Let side AB opposite the angle C be c
Let angle BAC = A
Let side BC opposite the angle A be a
=> Sin(C)/c = Sin(A)/a
to find a relation to sin(angle ABC), draw a line from point A to a point E such that point E is on the line BC and that AE is perpendicular to BC.
let angle ABC = B
let side AC opposite angle B be b
This implies that in triangle AEC
Sin(C) = AE/b , remember b = AC
AE = sin(C)*b
and in triangle AEB
sin(B) = AE/c , remember c = AB
AE = sin(B)*c
therefore sin(C)*b = sin(B)*c since they're both equal to AE
therefore Sin(C)/c = sin(B)/b
therefore Sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b = Sin(C)/c given that angle A is obtuse.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
for the cosine rule:
use the same construction from sine rule
cos(angle BAD) = AD/AB (in triangle BAD)
-cos(angle BAC) = AD/AB, (cosine in second quadrant is negative)
AD = -AB*cos(A) , to be used for subsitution later on
pythagoras on triangle BAD
BD^2 + AD^2 = AB^2
BD^2 + (-AB*cos(A))^2 = AB^2 , substituting AD
BD^2 + AB^2*(Cos(A))^2 = AB^2
BD^2 = AB^2 - AB^2(Cos(A))^2 , making BD^2 the subject
BD^2 = AB^2(1-(Cos(A))^2) , factorising AB^2 as a common factor
BD^2 = AB^2*(Sin(A))^2 , unit circle identity (BD to be used as substitution later on)
pythagoras on triangle BDC
DC^2 + BD^2 = BC^2
(AD+AC)^2 + BD^2 = BC^2 , the whole line DC is comprised of the two lines AD and AC added together (or DA and AC)
AD^2 + 2AD*AC + AC^2 + BD^2 = BC^2 , binomial expansion
(-AB*cos(A))^2 + 2(-AB*cos(A))*AC + AC^2 + AB^2*(Sin(A))^2 = BC^2 , substituting AD and BD
AB^2(cos(A))^2 -2*AB*AC*Cos(A) + AC^2 + AB^2*(Sin(A))^2 = BC^2
AB^2((cos(A))^2 + (Sin(A))^2) - 2*AB*AC*Cos(A) + AC^2 = BC^2 , grouping like terms AB^2 together and factorising
BC^2 = AB^2 + AC^2 - 2*AB*AC*Cos(A) , swapping LHS and RHS to make BC^2 the subject as well as rearranging terms.
a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bcCos(A) , provided that angle A is obtuse. (AB = c, AC = b, BC = a)
Very good and simple explanation.
Thank you for these videos, they are really helpful and you explain everything so well.
One way to remember the law of cosines: if C is 0, cos C is 1, and c²=(a-b)², because your triangle is lines a and b on top of each other meeting at C and c is the line between the other two ends, so its length is the absolute value of the difference between the other two lengths. So the law of cosines is the square of a difference with a cosine thrown in.

By the sum-to-product identity, sin(A) + sin(B) = 2·sin[(A + B)/2]·cos[(A - B)/2], and this can be proven from the addition of angles identities for sines and cosines and inverting the equations. An analogous identity exists for subtraction. Thus, [sin(A) - sin(B)]/[sin(A) + sin(B)] = (2·sin[(A - B)/2]·cos[(A + B)/2])/(2·sin[(A + B)/2]·cos[(A - B)/2]) = (sin[(A - B)/2]/cos[(A - B)/2])/(sin[(A + B)/2]/cos[(A + B)/2]) = tan[(A - B)/2]/tan[(A + B)/2] = (a - b)/(a + b), or alternatively, tan[(A - B)/2]/(a - b) = tan[(A + B)/2]/(a + b)
We proved the Law of Sine in a much different and easier way at school. First we used the formula to obtain the measurement of a chord inside a circle through the sinus of the angle it formed multiplied by the diameter itself ( 2r*sin(A)), then as a second proof we used the theorem of the surface of a triangle ( 1/2 * c*b*sin(A) where A is the angle between c and b) and using this formula with all the other sides of the triangle, since the surface is the same, you end up with the law of sine. For the Law of cosine we used a further proof that isn't easy to explain.
Hi, blackpenredpen Thanks a lot for this vid!!! You are Awesome!!! Keep uploading the amazing vids
I wanted to ask you If you have any tips for improving My ability to Prove theorems and formulas as I am very weak in the topic!!! Thanks in advance

Hi,
Please....
.........maclaurin series proof
Ddp What exactly are you asking for?
F(x) = sum (an(x-x0) ^n)
All you need to do is find an.
If you differentiate once and evaluate in x0 you find out that a1= f'(x0). Differentiate again and you find out a2=f''(x0) /2. Differentiate again and a3=f'''(x0) /6 and 6=3!.
Keep going till a certain number until you notice an=f^n(x0) /n!
Substitute that in the original sum and you found out that the coefficient an which best approximates the power series is that one. Plug it in and you got your "MacLovin" series 😂
no, I know,,,
But why is it so....
How that general function comes....
My favorite proof of the Law of Sines is this: Let BX be a diameter of the circumcircle of triangle ABC. Now consider triangle BXC. It is a right triangle with BC = a, BX = 2R (where R is the radius of the circumcircle), and either angle BXC = A or angle BXC = 180 - A, depending on whether A is acute. Either way, sin(A) = sin(BXC) = a/2R, giving us **2R = a/sin(A)**. By symmetry, we also have b/sin(B) and c/sin(C) equaling 2R. Hence they equal each other.
I like women.
Well done.
When I was at school the text book showed how to get (SinA)/a = (SinC)/c but did not show us how to get the last part (and the teachers didnt know either) YET the reality is (as you have shown) that it is dead easy !
It goes to show you that a little bit of lateral thinking can sovle many a problem.
EDIT : on second thought you have not demonstrated that a perpendicular from (or passing through) AB actually passes through angle C - rather you have merely drawn it that way. (try drawing AB as is but making AC longer and you dont get a perpendicular from AB passing through angle C and hence you dont get two right angled triangles in solving the second part when you extend it to solviong for (Sin B)/b
ADDITIONAL EDIT : are the lenghts of AB and AC identical ? And if so then does this work for an iososceles triangle ?
EDIT 3 It looks like your method should also work for equilateral triangles (but not for scalene triangles) ?
This method is generalized for all triangle
In the case of an obtuse triangle, some of the altitude line goes outside of the vertex of triangle
Love that ending song!
Thank you 🙏
awesome💪🏻
thanks for the amazing content
I love the amazing work! I have just recently learned this in my precalculus class! And I am very happy to see the proof and how it all fits together.
Nice one
you missed a major part in law of sine, where all these fractions equal to reciprocal of the 2R, where R is the radius of the triangle's circumcircle
nice video
Sir I love you thank you so much
I hope you will make video soon Thank you.
Thank you so much!
I feel like the proof for the law of sines is incomplete. Not all triangles have more than one altitude, yet the law of sines holds for all triangles. I think the area proof is much more compelling.
True that. And that’s why I said this is only for acute angles.
very nice sir
There are "weak" and "strong" induction proofs; is there something similar with the Law of Sines?
It means all height of thid triangle no matter what angle is the starting point are equals to each other?
After hearing Presh's gougu theorem bullshit, it's refreshing to finally hear about Pythagoras again
Could you do it in spherical triangle too?
Nice.
nice video.....
you are amazing bro
Fact: Cosine rule helps in proving Heron's Formula.
Keep dropping those perpendicular bombs brah
In NCERT EXEMPLAR book both were proved by vector
Bhai humse ncert nahi hoti m.. Tum examplar kar rhe ho
@@godson200 humare teachers krwa rahe h bhai important ques usme se
please prove the law of equal areas , it's a line and bunch of points spaced equally on the line and there are lines joining each point with the origin ,the law states that the areas created between the lines(the area of the triangles) are equal.
You can prove that by the theorem that triangle with equal bases and the same height have the same area.
(Note:- This theorem is not really very hard to prove, it comes from the area of a triangle)
Acc. To the problem,
All points are equally spaced,
Therefore, AA1=AA2=AA3=.....=An-1An
(let the points be named A,A1,A2,....AAn)
Now,
Since all triangles have a common vertex O(the origin).
The height dropped from the origin on any point on the line is common to all the triangles.
Thus, all the areas are equal by the above stated theorem.
@@mannyheffley9551correct me if I'm wrong but nothing is mentioned about the height since the height must be perpendicular on the base and there is nothing that states that and I can't see something that will show this.
@@Muhammed_English314 yeah but the perpendicular you can drop from a common vertex of any two triangle are common for those two triangles.
For eg:- you take a scalene triangle. Drop a perpendicular. Also construct a median intersecting the bade base at a point J.
We observe that for both the triangles the perpendicular is common and they both have the same area.
@@mannyheffley9551 yes you can say that but since it's not an isosceles triangle the perpendicular will not have the segment between the three points so you can't say they have the same perpendicular AND one equal side(the bases of the two triangles which share the perpendicular)
@@Muhammed_English314 that's alright that doesn't matter.
Area of a triangle= 1/2 * base* height
Since the bases of both of the triangles are equal and the perpendicular is the same and is between the same parallels. Their area is equal.
Thanks you sir
好懷念啊

How small board he used to prove two laws
Can u make geometry of building space easier?
What about the radios in the boht laws ??
I would like to know why is that there is a different result when using both sin and cos law in the same triangle problem
Sir I want Napler analogy one sir plzz tell me that one
By reason of symmetry there is no need to repeat for h2 what was proved for h1. Just relabel letters, or permute them, or use (the groupe) axial symmetry. Not using arguments of symmetry is wrong, it makes the proof heavy, longer, inelegant, redondant and akward. Its a kind of violation of the "Principle of Least Action" (economy). Arguments of symmetry are extremely important since in real problems the complexity gets almost always so strong that there is no chance to solde the problem without using the helpful simplifications braught by the symmetries of the problem.
i like the outro song btw
this is great! xD
Great
this is a chapter named Properties of triangles in class 11 ISC book::: India this many logical question come from this chapter
ok
I love you Sir
