Answer:
1. AC = 5 cm
2. CD = 10.7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the left triangle, we see that AC is the side "opposite" of the angle given and AB is the "hypotenuse".
Which trigonometric ratio relates "opposite" to "hypotenuse"?
<em>Yes, that's SINE.</em>
<em />
So we can write:
We know from 30-60-90 triangle, Sin(30) = 0.5, so we have:
Thus,
AC = 5 cm
Now, looking at right side triangle, we know AC, side "opposite" and we want to find CD, side "adjacent". Which trig ratio relates these 2 sides?
<em>Yes, that's tan!</em>
Thus we can write:
Now using calculator, we get our answer to be:
CD =
So
CD = 10.7 cm
