This is a 30-60-90 triangle as shown by the angles. These types of triangles have their shortest leg opposite the smallest angle, and the connection between the short and long legs is

long = short*sqrt(3)

We see that the long leg is 16*sqrt(3) units long, which must mean the short leg is 16 units. This doubles to 32 when we go from short leg to hypotenuse

hypotenuse = short*2
