Answer:
Explanation:
Question 1: Assumption: This is a 30-60-90 triangle.
Remember that the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle are in the ratio 1:√3:2
The side opposite the 90° angle is 16, so the side opposite the 30° angle is 16/2 = 8
x = 8 units.

Question 2: Assumption: This is an isosceles triangle.
Draw the altitude to the vertex angle and you get a 30-60-90 triangle.
The side opposite the 90° angle has length 22, so the side opposite the 30° angle has length 11.
x/2 = 11
x = 22 units

Question 3: Assumption: This is a 45-45-90 triangle.
The sides of a 45-45-90 triangle are in the ratio 1:1:√2
The sides opposite the 45° angles are 19 and x.
x = 19

Question 4: Assumption: This is an isosceles triangle.
x = 13 units
:::::
Question 5: Assumption: This is a right triangle.
sin(54°) = x/45
x = 45sin(54°) ≅ 36.4 units

Question 6: Assumption: This is a right triangle.
sin(35°) = z/23
z = 23sin(35°) ≅ 13.2 units
