Question

For the right triangle find the missing length. Round your answer
to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Explanation:

w = 2√3 ≈ 3.5 units

Answer 2

3.5

Explanation:

tan60 = w/2

Multiply 2 on both sides to get the w by itself.

tan60 x 2 = w

Put tan60 into the calculator.

2 x 1.732050808 = w

Multiply.

w = 3.5
