Problem
Find the area enclosed between y = x² and y = 2x in the first quadrant.
1
Find the points of intersection
Set the curves equal: x² = 2x → x(x - 2) = 0, so x = 0 and x = 2.
2
Identify which curve is on top
On (0, 2), 2x > x², so y = 2x is the upper curve.
3
Set up the area integral
A = ∫₀² (2x - x²) dx
4
Integrate term-by-term
A = [ x² - x³/3 ]₀²
Final Answer
A = 4/3 sq. units
Quick Answer
What is the law of sines?
The law of sines states that in any triangle, the ratio of a side to the sine of its opposite angle is the same for all three sides: a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C). Use it when you have an angle-side pair plus one more piece of information (another angle or another side). For ASA, AAS, and SAA, the law of sines gives a clean single solution. For SSA, it may give zero, one, or two solutions (the ambiguous case).

FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
When should I use law of sines instead of law of cosines?
Use law of sines when you have an angle-side pair (an angle and its opposite side) plus one more piece. This includes ASA, AAS, SAA, and SSA cases. Use law of cosines when you have SSS or SAS (no angle-opposite-side pair available). AskSia picks the right law based on the input.
What is the ambiguous SSA case?
When given two sides and an angle not between them, there can be zero, one, or two valid triangles. If the angle is acute and the opposite side is shorter than the adjacent side, two triangles may exist. AskSia computes both candidate angles using sin and 180-sin, then checks which produce valid triangles (positive third angle).
How does AskSia handle obtuse angles?
The law of sines works for obtuse angles directly: sin(obtuse) is positive (sin is positive on (0, 180)), so the formula gives a valid answer. When solving for an angle and the computed sin value matches both an acute and an obtuse angle, AskSia considers both possibilities (this is the SSA ambiguity).
Can the law of sines be derived from the law of cosines?
Yes, indirectly. The law of cosines gives a relationship between sides and one angle. Manipulating it (or using the area formula (1/2)*ab*sin(C) and equating different forms) leads to a/sin(A) = b/sin(B). AskSia can show the derivation. Both laws are usually proved independently using altitude or coordinate methods.
How accurate is AskSia?
AskSia is engineered for accuracy on standard high school and college coursework. Accuracy comes from subject-specialized models, a symbolic verification pass that catches arithmetic errors, and a self-check step that re-derives the answer before showing it to you.
Can I get practice problems and flashcards?
Yes. After any solve, ask Sia to generate similar practice problems at SAT, ACT, AP, IB, or college difficulty, or build a flashcard set on the underlying concept in one tap. Useful for exam prep and spaced repetition before a quiz, midterm, or final.
How much does AskSia cost?
AskSia has a free plan that includes daily solves across all subjects. AskSia Pro and Super include unlimited solves, advanced subjects, the full AI tutor companion, exports, and priority response speed. See pricing for details.
