So with this triangle, it's considered a "special triangle". The 30-60-90 triangle states that <em>if the short leg is x, the hypotenuse is 2x and the long leg is x√3</em>.
Now since the 60° is across from 11, I can presume that 11 is the long leg, and to get the short leg HG, you would need to divide 11 by √3. However, we need to rationalize the denominator. To do that, multiply the fraction by √3/√3:
Next, since we got the short leg, multiply that by 2 to get the hypotenuse:
<u>In short, HG = and HI = . The correct option is D.</u>
