Subject: Request for simple trig formula
From: David Weilacher (daveweilacher@XXX.XXX)

I need a favor.
I don't recall the simple trig formulas and don't have the mental where-with-all to find anything using a search engine. I think it is because my mind just doesn't index the way they do.
If I know the lengths of 3 sides of a triangle and one angle (90), how do I determine the two remaining angles.
I do own a fancy calculator capable of sin, cos stuff.
What I would like to come away with are the side-angle-side, angle-side-angle, and side-side-side formulas so that I can write them down in my address book for future reference.
Thank you.
PS: I am attempting to solve a problem indirectly related to navigation.
