whops read the question wrong

Answer 8

lozl its ok :D

Answer 9

y is their no number next to the hypothenus

Answer 10

oh sorry its 6 radical 3

Answer 11

the 2 of them that are blank are 6radical3

Answer 12

i really have no idea what im doing sorry

Answer 13

oh its fine :) i dont either

Answer 14

i hate radicals,

Answer 15

i feel ya

Answer 16

or anything that looks like it log, squareroots that stuff makes feel feel sick

Answer 17

I solved it using radical 3 as the longer leg of the triangle. Try solving it again with the right measurement.

If you draw the triangle you'll be able to notice that the longer leg of it is determined by the 60º angle. Using the sin rule
a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC
3^(1/2)/sin(60) -> 3^(1/2)/3^(1/2)/2 -> 1/2
so
hip/sin(90) = 1/2
and
smaller leg/sin(30) = 1/2

hip=1/2(sin(90))
smallerleg = 1/2(sin(30))

hip = 1/2
smaller leg = 1/4
