Nnesha (nnesha):

same like last one

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\rm sin \rm \theta = \frac{ opposite }{ hypotenuse }~~~~ \cos \theta = \frac{ adjacent }{ hypotenuse } ~~\tan \theta = \frac{ opposite }{ adjacent }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup.

Nnesha (nnesha):

so which function you should apply ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My bad, should have read all of your replies.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a 30-60-90 triangle, so the sides are in the ratio 1:√3:2

Nnesha (nnesha):

okay. so x =what ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh...I am trying to help you solve it.

Nnesha (nnesha):

this is your post not mine so that's mean you asked question for help

Nnesha (nnesha):

given is hyp and adjacent side of 60 degree so you can apply sin or tan to find value of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Isn't that right, champion?

Nnesha (nnesha):

you will get the same answer doesn't matter u apply sin or tan

Nnesha (nnesha):

that's right

OpenStudy (anonymous):
