Why do we have two pages, [[Sine rule]] and [[Law of sines]]?  Please make a redirect of one to the other.  [[User:David E. Volk|David E. Volk]] 18:42, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

:My mistake. I wrote [[Sine rule]] unaware of the fact that it is aka [[Law of sines]] (I guess mainly in US high-schools). After I had written the article  I discovered the name "Law of sines" and when I wanted to make a redirect I saw that "Law of sines" already existed. I didn't want to delete any of the two articles, so I put cross links in both. --[[User:Paul Wormer|Paul Wormer]] 08:06, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Why do we have two pages, Sine rule and Law of sines? Please make a redirect of one to the other. David E. Volk 18:42, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

My mistake. I wrote Sine rule unaware of the fact that it is aka Law of sines (I guess mainly in US high-schools). After I had written the article I discovered the name "Law of sines" and when I wanted to make a redirect I saw that "Law of sines" already existed. I didn't want to delete any of the two articles, so I put cross links in both. --Paul Wormer 08:06, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
