Answer 5

Ok, so which part of the problem confused you?

Answer 6

not sure where the heck that 2 comes from

Answer 7

I saw that. But which SPECIFIC part do you not understand? Did you understand everything up until the 2?

Answer 8

yes, i have no idea why the 2 was put there or where it came from

Answer 9

Well as you saw before it, they divided \[\large \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}\] If you divide a fraction, it's the same as multiplying by the inverse. \[\large 1 \div \frac{1}{2}~=~1 \times \frac{2}{1}\] is this what confused you?

Answer 10

wait, so in that whole equation all of those are equal??

Answer 11

or is the 1 \[1 \times \frac{ 2 }{ 1 }\]

Answer 12

1 divided by .5 = to 2, but not equal to the first part. Do you understand what i'm asking?

Answer 13

Tbh, not really. Are you asking about the properties of a 30-60-90 triangle or the properties of fractions?

Answer 14

wait a minute when the example put it like that

Answer 15

Their explanation really was off-focus. They were comparing the problem they gave you to the example triangle, and I think that's what caused the confusion.

Answer 16

\[\frac{ x }{ 2\sqrt{3}} =\frac{ 1 }{ \frac{ 1 }{ 2} }=2\]

Answer 17

isn't it when they put it like that, it makes it equal?

Answer 18

like everything.

Answer 19

Right. The \(\large \frac{x}{2\sqrt{3}}\) is from your triangle and the \(\large \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}\) was from the example triangle.

Answer 20

They were comparing the ratios, although the "=" wasn't the best way to do it.

Answer 21

they are using proportions.

Answer 22

you got that though?

Answer 23

Got what, exactly?

Answer 24

bleh nevermind i don't even get what i was saying.

Answer 25

i understand everything now! (I hope), i've been stcuk on that for such a long time thank you very much. <3
