FIrst use the pythag. theorm to solve for g.

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

is g 50?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes good job

OpenStudy (raden):

yes, thats right. 5, 12, 13 is tripl. if you times by 10, they are 50, 120, 130.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now use sin() function sin(30) = 50/h isolate h and solve

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

Actually i cant use trig in this one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

h = 50/sin(30) = 100

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes you can...

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

My teacher doesnt want it thats what i mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well you know it's a 30-60-90 triangle

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So knowing that you see h is 2*g for 30-60-90.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
