Question

The shorter leg of a 30°- 60°- 90° right triangle is 12.5 inches. How long are the longer leg and the hypotenuse?

Answer 1

ratios of a 30 - 60 - 90 right triangle are \(1:\sqrt{3}:2\)

Answer 2

so if the short let is say \(a\) then the long leg is \(a\times \sqrt{3}\) and the hypotenuse is \(2a\)

Answer 3

so the longer leg would be 21.65 and the hypotenuse would be 25

Answer 4

that's right ^
