Find the lengths of the two legs of a right triangle having an angle with a measure of 30 degrees if the length of the hypothenuse is 4. a) 2, square root of 2 b) 4, square root of 3 c) 3, square root of 3 d) 5, square root of 3 pls help me

@ thomasj: which is it?

Parth (parthkohli):

Right angle = One angle of 90 It's mentioned that one of the angles is 30. So, this will form a 30-60-90 triangle. \(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow 2x, x, x\sqrt {3} }\) are the ratios. 2x is the hypotenuse. So, 2x = 4, x = 2. So the other sides are: \(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow 2, 2\sqrt{3} }\)
