Respuesta :
the longer leg is the leg adjacent to the larger angle
so 60
length of longer leg = 4 sin60 = 2sqrt(3)
so 60
length of longer leg = 4 sin60 = 2sqrt(3)
Answer:
[tex]2\sqrt{3}[/tex] units is the longer leg
Step-by-step explanation:
Definition: 30 -60 -90
In 30-60-90 triangle,
the length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter leg; and
the length of the longer leg is [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] times the length of the shorter leg.
As per the statement:
The length of the hypotenuse of 30 -60 -90 triangle is 4
Length of hypotenuse = 4 units
then, by definition we have;
length of shorter leg = 2 units
then;
the length of the longer leg is [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] times the length of the shorter leg.
⇒Length of longer leg = [tex]2\sqrt{3}[/tex] units
Therefore, the length of longer leg is, [tex]2\sqrt{3}[/tex] units
