b\left(1-\sin(\theta )\right)=a
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
b-b\sin(\theta )=a
Use the distributive property to multiply b by 1-\sin(\theta ).
\left(1-\sin(\theta )\right)b=a
Combine all terms containing b.
\left(-\sin(\theta )+1\right)b=a
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-\sin(\theta )+1\right)b}{-\sin(\theta )+1}=\frac{a}{-\sin(\theta )+1}
Divide both sides by 1-\sin(\theta ).
b=\frac{a}{-\sin(\theta )+1}
Dividing by 1-\sin(\theta ) undoes the multiplication by 1-\sin(\theta ).
