10. tan(30) = l / 6√3

l = tan(30) x 6√3

l = 6

cos(30) = 6√3 / y

y = 6√3/cos(30)

y = 12

11. tan(30) = c/30

c = 30 x tan(30)

c = 10√3

cos(30) = 27/w

w = 27/cos(30)

w = 18√3

12.

sin(60) = 36/y

y = 36/sin(60)

y = 24√3

tan(60) = 36/x

x = 36/tan(60)

x = 12√3

Answer:

10. (l, y) = (6, 12)

11. (c, w) = (9√3, 18√3)

12. (x, y) = (12√3, 24√3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Side ratios, shortest to longest, in a 30°-60°-90° triangle are ...

1 : √3 : 2

10. l : 6√3 : y = 1 : √3 : 2

multiply by 6

= 6 : 6√3 : 12

l = 6, y = 12

11. c : 27 : w = 1 : √3 : 2

multiply by 27/√3 = 9√3

= 9√3 : 27 : 18√3

c = 9√3, w = 18√3

12. x : 36 : y = 1 : √3 : 2

multiply by 36/√3 = 12√3

= 12√3 : 36 : 24√3

x = 12√3, y = 24√3

This is easier when the triangle is drawn to clearly differentiate the lengths of the sides. The long leg is opposite the 60° angle; the short leg is opposite the 30° angle.

An engineer needs to determine the distance across a river without swimming to the other side. The engineer notices a tree on th

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The engineer can use a clinometer to measure the angle of elevation of the top of the tree. Let the height of the tree be represented by x, the she could determine the distance across the river, d, by applying the trigonometric function.

Tan θ = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

= $\frac{x}{d}$

the the distance, d = x ÷ Tan θ

Assume the angle of elevation of the top of the tree is $30^{o}$ , and the height of the tree is 10 m, then the distance, d, across the river would be;
