M+k because the subtraction sign and negative cancel out to become positive
Answer:
9sqrt(3) in.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the lengths of the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle is:
short leg : long leg : hypotenuse
1 : sqrt(3) : 2
If the short leg measures 1, then the hypotenuse measures 2.
The length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg.
The length of the long leg is sqrt(3) times the length of the short leg.
If the hypotenuse measures 18 in., then the short leg measures 9 in.
Then the long leg measures 9sqrt(3) in.
