Is this a multiple choice question? @saifoo.khan I thought you can only use the trigonometric ratios when it's a right triangle? THere's no indication of that here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No you use Pyrthagorus theorem if its right.

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey no angle is given ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would've thought you would use the rule that the 2 smaller sides are bigger than the third side to set up a compound inequality :/

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Let's assume this as right angle and use Pythagoras! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):
