Question

In the triangle below, what is the length of the side opposite the 60° angle?

Answer 1

3SQRT(3).  It is equal to the short side time Square Root of 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right angle triangle having two angles 60° and 30°.

One of the legs is given as 3 units.

We have to find the length of the side opposite to the angle measuring 60°

We will find the tan of this angle to get the required side.

$tan60=\frac{x}{3}$

x = 3(tan60)

x = 3√3

Therefore, Option D. 3√3 will be the answer.
