Using the 60-30-90 right triangle method, find x and answer in simplest radical form.

Answer:

x = 2 \sqrt{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right we can use the sine ratio to find x

sin60° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{\sqrt{30} }{x}

[ note the exact value of sin60° = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} ], hence

\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{30}{x}

multiply both sides by 2x, hence

\sqrt{3} x = 2\sqrt{30}

divide both sides by \sqrt{3}

x = \frac{2\sqrt{30} }{\sqrt{3} } = 2\sqrt{\frac{30}{3} } = 2\sqrt{10}

svetlana [45]

Answer:

We conclude that If Tawnee increases the length and width of the playground by a scale factor of 2, the perimeter of the new playground will be twice the perimeter of the original playground.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+w)

i.e.

P = 2(l+w)

Here

  • 'l' is the length
  • 'w' is the width

Given that the length and width of the playground by a scale factor of 2

A scale factor of 2 means we need to multiply both length and width by 2.

i.e

P = 2× 2(l+w)

P' = 2 (2(l+w))

    = 2P      ∵ P = 2(l+w)

Therefore, we conclude that If Tawnee increases the length and width of the playground by a scale factor of 2, the perimeter of the new playground will be twice the perimeter of the original playground.
