yuno base & hite & 1 angel at base

zampel...base=10, hite=6, angel=85deg...

then (left-side)*sine(85 deg)=hite=6...left-side=6/sine(85)=6/0.996194698

left-side=6.022919025

get rite-side from law av sines...side1/sine(angel1)=side2/sine(angel2)=side3/sine(angel3)

or get x-komponent av top point=(leff-side)*kosine(angel1)

=6.022919025*kosine(85 deg)=6.02....*0.087155742=0.524931981
