To solve for side a in a right spherical triangle using the given information, we can use the equation of the Law of Sines in spherical trigonometry. The equation is:
sin(a) / sin(A) = sin(c) / sin(C)
In this equation, a represents the length of side a, A represents the measure of angle A, c represents the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle, and C represents the measure of the right angle.
Therefore, the equation used to solve for side a is:
sin(a) / sin(A) = sin(c) / sin(C)
Use the given parts of a right spherical triangle ACB
C = 90°
B = 143° 44'
A = 60° 25'
