Answer 1

Answer: 4.00

Explanation

To find the maximum value for x, the hypotenuse, with a given of an angle 30° and a height of 2 m, we can see that 30° is directly opposite the side of 2 m, in which case we may use the sin of 30° to find the hypotenuse.

Remember that the sin = opposite/hypotenuse, so sin30° = 2/x

1) sin30 = 2/x
2) 1/2 = 2/x
3) x = 4

Hope this helps :)
