Answer:

15√3

Explanation:

This is a 30-60-90 triangle, so in order to solve for v, we can multiply the short leg by √3, which we will get 15√3.

Answer:

v = 25.98

Explanation:

You could do this a number of ways. Some are much longer than others. The shortest way is to use the tangent.

Formula

Tan(theta) = opposite / adjacent

Givens

Theta = 30o

Opposite = 15 km

Adjacent = x

Solution

tan(30) = 15 / v Multiply both sides by v

v*tan(30) = 15 Divide by tan(30)

v = 15/tan(30)

tan(30) = 0.5774

v = 15 / 0.5774

v = 25.98
