If none of the angles of a triangle is a right angle, the triangle is called oblique.
All angles are acute Two acute angles, one obtuse angle
2
To solve an oblique triangle means to find the lengths of its sides and the measurements of its angles.
3
FOUR CASES CASE 1: One side and two angles are known (SAA or ASA). CASE 2: Two sides and the angle opposite one of them are known (SSA). CASE 3: Two sides and the included angle are known (SAS). CASE 4: Three sides are known (SSS).
