Question

The hypotenuse of a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle measures 2 feet. How long is the short leg of

this triangle?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The answer is -120÷2=-60

Answer 2

Answer:The short leg is the square root 2.

Explanation:

So we know that the triangle is a right triangle and the hypotenuse is 2.

so we could use the formula a^2 + b^2 = 2^2

A and B could be the same.

A and B could be the square root of 2 so lets try it out.

√2^2 +√2^2=4

2 + 2= 4
