Do you know the ratios of a 30-60-90 triangle?

unwxntedchxd:

not really

unwxntedchxd:

is it the x, x3, and x times the square root of 3

AZ:

If the side opposite the 30 angle is 'x' then the side opposite 60 degrees would be \(x\sqrt{3}\) and the hypotenuse is 2x

unwxntedchxd:

yes

AZ:

So in your question, the side opposite 60 degrees is \(\sqrt{3}\) so what should the side opposite \( 30^o\) be

unwxntedchxd:

to be honest i have no clue

unwxntedchxd:

im in geometry not trig

AZ:

I know, this is still in the realm of geometry trigonometry is just geometry but focused only on triangles

AZ:

so look |dw:1617830734599:dw|

AZ:

so what would 'x' have to be for \( x\sqrt{3} = \sqrt{3}\) it should be quite obvious it's the most basic triangle... what would you get if x =1
