Mollweide’s Formula For any triangle, Mollweide’s Formula (named after Karl Mollweide, 1774–1825) states that
Derive it.
[Hint: Use the Law of Sines and then a Sum-to-Product Formula. Notice that this formula involves all six parts of a triangle. As a result, it is sometimes used to check the solution of a triangle.]
Solve each triangle.
Area of a Segment Find the area of the segment (shaded in blue in the figure) of a circle whose radius is 8 feet, formed by a central angle of .
[Hint: Subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the sector to obtain the area of the segment.]
