Need some help With Geometry!! (question below)

OpenStudy (terminator9999):

OpenStudy (danjs):

Notice the right triangles are 30-60-90, the sides are related by a certain ratio

OpenStudy (danjs):

1 : root(3) : 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

the shorter side across from the 30, is \[2\sqrt{3}\] short side : long side : hypotenuse 1 : root 3 : 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

the long side is root 3 times the short side, so here it will be \[2\sqrt{3}*\sqrt{3} = 2*3\]

OpenStudy (danjs):

notice the hypotenuse is 2 times the short side, or 2*2root(3) 1 - root(3) - 2 \[2\sqrt{3}~:~6~:~4\sqrt{3}\]
