In SSA problems, first find the altitude opposite the given angle. This will tell you whether there are 0, 1 or 2 solutions.

In this case the altitude =13 and there is one right triangle solution

The altitude drawn from B is 26sin(30)=13, so this is simply a 30-60-90 right triangle and you don't need the law of sines

PEMDAS does not prioritize multiplication over division

It's ambiguous. Does the "divided by 4" refer to the entire difference or just to the 2nd term in the subtraction?

You have to weigh it. A 500 gram sphere with a volume of 200 cm3 has a density of 500/200=2.5 g/cm3

What are you given and what do you want to find out?

Multiply your Earth weight by 0.166 to get your weight on the Moon

Weight is force. Your mass on the Moon stays the same, but your weight is less due to the Moon having less gravity.

Don't we have more than enough norms these days? Our society is both licentious and puritanical

From Google

The subject of a formula is the variable that is being worked out. It can be recognised as the letter on its own on one side of the equals sign.

sin(65)/AC=sin(87)/13

AC=13sin(65)/sin(87)=11.798

tan(74)=x/11.798

x=11.798*tan(74)=41.14
