Answer:
m < A = 60º
m < B = 30º
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sides on this triangle are: 6, , and 12
Any triangle with the angles of 30º - 60º - 90º always has side lengths in this proportion:
x, , 2x
We can line this up with the given sides. If x is 6, then 2x would be 12.
x : : 2x = 6 :
: 12
Angle B is across from 6, the shortest side. That also means that it corresponds to x, or the smallest angle in the proportion, 30º.
m < B = 30º
Solving for < A:
Method 1) Sum of Angles in a Triangle
Since we already know that one angle is right and therefore 90º and m < B is 30º, we can subtract these from the total sum of angle measures in a triangle to get the last angle, < A.
180º - 90º - 30º = 60º
m < A = 60º
Method 2) Using the second part of the proportion
Since m < A is across from the second largest side, we know that it is equal to (
in this question) or 60º in the angle proportion.
This means that m < A = 60º
Let me know if you have any questions!
4, 7 and 9 are mutually coprime, so you can use the Chinese remainder theorem.
Start with
Taken mod 4, the last two terms vanish and we're left with
We have , so we can multiply the first term by 3 to guarantee that we end up with 1 mod 4.
Taken mod 7, the first and last terms vanish and we're left with
which is what we want, so no adjustments needed here.
Taken mod 9, the first two terms vanish and we're left with
so we don't need to make any adjustments here, and we end up with .
By the Chinese remainder theorem, we find that any such that
is a solution to this system, i.e. for any integer
, the smallest and positive of which is 149.
