Question

Determine the length of AY if ARAY is a 30°-60°-90° triangle and AR has a length of 24 centimeters.

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of AY is:

`24\sqrt[]{3}cm`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AR is 24 centimeters, to find the length of AY, we use:

`\begin{gathered} \tan 30=(24)/(AY) \\ \\ AY=(24)/(\tan30) \\ \\ =\frac{24}{(\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{3}})}=24\sqrt[]{3}cm \end{gathered}`
