Answer: I believe it is A.

Step-by-step explanation:let me start by saying that D and B aren't true because u is greater than 3 to the square root of 3, which is roughly 5.2. So were left with A and C. Then we realize that 3 to the square root of 3 is the same as 3 to the square root of 3, so it can't be C, so were left with A. (I could be wrong, I'm not the smartest in math, but I hope this helped and wish you luck)

Answer:

  • A) u = 6, v = 3

====================

Given is 30° × 60° × 90° triangle.

Use its property

  • a : b : c = 1 : √3 : 2, where a, b, c are sides from the shortest to longest.

Apply the ratios

  • u : 3√3 : v = 1 : √3 : 2

Find the missing sides

  • v = 3√3 / √3 = 3
  • u = 2v = 2*3 = 6

The matching choice is A
