Apologies if this is just wrong haha. I made this flow chart to help me out in the exam if I need it. Let me know if I've got something missing, there are errors, or if you'd like something changed! :)



In case you'd like to use it, I've attached the image for you to download and print! :)

The cosine rule is missing and Pythagoras' formula is wrong :P

I'm not sure if your cosine rule/sine rule pathways are going to help. What I used to do was circle the 'pairs' (a pair constitutes an angle and a given length on the opposite side of the triangle - whether or not they are actual numbers). If I got a 'propellor', I knew I had to use the sine rule, and if I got an 'arrowhead', I knew I had to use the cosine rule. How I used to remember the two was through a little saying of my teacher:

Quote
Person 1: Dude, why did you shoot your best friend with an arrow?
Person 2: ... 'cos.

I know it's really bad but things like that remain ingrained in your head. :P
