Question

Given the value of the hypotenuse c for a 30°-60°-90° triangle, write the

equations to represent sides a and b in terms of c. Assume a is the shorter leg.

Answer 1

a= c/2

b= (c/2)×√3

side b is the side with the 60 degree angle.

side a is the side with the 30 degree angle.

using the theorem that the side with the 60 degree × 2 = length of side c and the side with the 60 degree × √3 = b.

I get the following equations shown above.
