<p>why is the law of sines problem 18sin76/sin47 instead of 18sin47/sin76? I initially used the hint they gave me and obtained 18sin76/sin47, but as we were trying to determine the length of a side of the triangle, it wouldn’t make sense for the answer to be 18sin76/sin47 (which would make the side length 82.46.) I tried 18sin47/sin76 and got a side length of about 4, which seemed much more reasonable.</p>
