This is perfect! 30-60-90 triangles follow a specific ratio where the hypotenuse is twice as long as the short leg, and the long leg is
√(3) times as long as the short leg. Knowing this, you can divide 11
√(3) by
√(3) to get 11 as the short leg. Multiply 11 by 2 to get the hypotenuse.

Final answer - the hypotenuse is 22
