Question

Find the perimeter of a 30°-60°-90° triangle with a hypotenuse of 18

Answer 1

A 30-60-90 triangle has lengths opposite those sides of x, xsqrt(3), and 2x.

Answer 2

i dont understand the question either way

Answer 3

Since the hypotenuse is opposite the 90 degree angle, its length is 2x, which is given in the problem to be 18.

Answer 4

Thus, x is 9.

Answer 5

So, the side opposite the 30 degree angle is length 9.

Answer 6

And the side opposite the 60 degree angle is length 9*sqrt(3).

Answer 7

The perimeter is the sum of all the lengths of sides.

Answer 8

thank you this really helped me.

Answer 9

Great! yw
