Question

For the given triangles select the lengths of the sides.

Answer 1

v=3

u=6

x=2√2

y=2√2

Explanation:

First triangle :

tanΦ=v/3√3

tan30=v/3√3

(√3)/3=v/(3√3)

Cross multiply

(√3)/3 x 3√3=v

(√3 x 3√3)/3=v

(3√9)/3=v

(3x3)/3=v

9/3=v

3=v

v=3

Sin30=v/u

0.5=3/u

Cross multiply

0.5xu=3

0.5u=3

Divide both sides by 0.5

0.5u/0.5=3/0.5

u=6

Second triangle :

sin45=x/4

Cross multiply

x=4 x sin45

x=4 x (√2)/2

x=2√2

Cos45=y/4

Cross multiply

4 x Cos45=y

4 x (√2)/2=y

(4√2)/2=y

2√2=y

y=2√2
