Question

In the image below, 10 is the long leg of the 30-60-90 triangle. True or false?

Answer 1

The measure of the angle between the hypotenuse and the short leg is 60° and we can conclude that the side with length 10 is not the long leg of the 30 - 60 - 90 right triangle. (Right choice: False)

Is the length of a known arm in a 30 - 60 - 90 right triangle the long arm?

In accordance with geometry, the length of the long arm of a 30 - 60 - 90 right triangle is √3 / 2 times the length of the hypotenuse, the length of the short arm is 1 / 2 times the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the long arm is √3 times the length of the arm.

Thus, the measure of the angle between the hypotenuse and the short leg is 60° and we can conclude that the side with length 10 is not the long leg of the 30 - 60 - 90 right triangle. (Right choice: False)
