. Triangles (30-60-90, 45-45-90, 3-4-5, 5-12-13)
30-60-90 triangle and label its sides and angles
Draw a 45-45-90 triangle and label its sides and angles
(Note: All of the following are right triangles)
If the leg opposite the 30-degree angle is 8, what is the hypotenuse of the triangle?
If one of the legs is 6 and the hypotenuse is 10, what is the other leg?
If the hypotenuse is 20, what is the length of the leg opposite the 45-degree angle?
If one of the legs is 10 and the other leg is 24, what is the length of the hypotenuse?

ReplyDeleteThe side opposite the 90 will be 2X, the side opposite the 60 will be X * the square root of 3, the side opposite the 30 will be X
Draw a 45-45-90 triangle and label its sides and angles
The sides opposite the 45 will be Xs, the side opposite the 90 will be X * the square root of 2
