notice below the picture

the one on the left-hand-side, is the 30-60-90 rule

those are the ratios, for 16), the hypotenuse (slanted side), is 4

for the ratios, that means that 4 = 2x, if you solve that for "x", that simply means "x" is 2

now, just use that value you found for "x" from the hypotenuse ratio, and use it to get the other two sides

what's the perimeter? all three sides added together

for 17)
\bf \textit{area of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ A=\cfrac{s^2√(3)}{4}\qquad s=\textit{length of one side}
