The length of the other leg is 12, I think, but I'm not sure. Sorry if it's wrong.

Answer:

x=6\sqrt{3} units.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that shorter leg of a 30°-60°-90° triangle is 6.

In a triangle larger interior angle has larger opposite side and vice versa.

The length of shortest leg is 6 units it means it is opposite to the angle 30°.

Let the length of second leg be x.

In a right angle triangle,

\tan \theta =\dfrac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}

\tan (30^\circ) =\dfrac{6}{x}}

\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{6}{x}}

On cross multiplication, we get

x=6\sqrt{3}

Hence, the length of the other leg is x=6\sqrt{3} units.

Will award brainliest to correct answer!
Artyom0805 [142]

Let's begin noting that a triangle is isosceles if and only if two of its angles are congruent. We can thus find the angle <ABP, recalling that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.

\angle \: ABP =  \frac{180 - 80}{2}  = 50 \degree

Finally, let point K be the intersection between segments BC and PQ, and let's note that the triangle PQB is a right isosceles triangle, since all the angles in a square are equal to 90°, and the two triangles APB and BQC are congruent.

Therefore, the angle BKQ is equal to 180-50-45=85°.

Of course angle BKP=180-85=95°.

Hope this helps :)

A line passes through (6, 3), (8, 4), and (n, -2). Find the value of n.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

n = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice how in the previous examples they all divide by 2? It is the same case here. So now the question is... "what" divided by "2" is "-2".

Let me show you:

n ÷ 2 = -2

if you know your integer math, you should know that...

-4 ÷2 = -2 (this is the correct equation)
