@mathstudent55 This one is a little tougher for me

kobeni-chan · Answer

In 30-60-90 triangles, you can use this to find side measurements:

mythorius · Answer

Yep, @mathstudent55 told me about that. I need help with figuring out what the short side is

kobeni-chan · Answer

Well the short side is given as 2. So x = 2 for the short side, and the long side is x√3

mythorius · Answer

Okay

kobeni-chan · Answer

So you can just plop 2 in there for 2√3 :)
And you can check your work by using the Pythagorean Theorem, which is 
a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.

Alrighty. Thank you.
