Answer:

(B) False

Explanation:

The given statement that is The law of sines can only be applied to non right triangles is False because Law of sines states that in any given triangle, the ratio of any side length to the sine of its opposite angle is always same for all the three sides of the triangle.

And this is always true for any triangle whether scalene, isosceles and not just right triangles.

The law of sines is given as:


{(a)/(sinA)}={(b)/(sinB)}={(c)/(sinC)}

Hence, the given statement is false and option B is correct.
