Help me check this please? I was solving for values d and e. I got d=2square root 3 and e=2. But I'm pretty sure that's not right...Diagram is in the comments!

Looks like a 30-60-90 triangle, eh?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup

Parth (parthkohli):

Well, \(d = 2\) actually.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I keep getting them backwards? lol

Parth (parthkohli):

the longer leg is \(2\sqrt3\), so the shorter leg is 2.

Parth (parthkohli):

... and then the hypotenuse is 2 times the shorter leg, or 4.
