2. The problem asks to find the length of side $x$ in the given triangle in simplest radical form with a rational denominator. The triangle is a right triangle with a 30-60-90 angles, and one side with length
4.
2. Solution Steps
Let's denote the sides of the triangle as follows:
- Hypotenuse:
- Side opposite to 30-degree angle:
- Side opposite to 60-degree angle: unknown
Since it's a 30-60-90 triangle, we know the ratios of the sides are .
The hypotenuse is , where is the side opposite the 30-degree angle. Therefore, , implying .
However, this is not consistent with the problem where is supposed to be adjacent to 60 degrees. Let's consider the other relationship.
The hypotenuse is
4. The side adjacent to the 60-degree angle which is $x$.
Since , we have .
Solving for , we get .
Let's consider that x is the adjacent side to 30 degrees.
Since , we have .
Solving for , we get . Since the problem shows is opposite the 30-degree angle in a right triangle with hypotenuse 4, the correct solution is
.
Since , we have .
Solving for , we get .
However, the figure shown in question 12 does not show that. Thus let's assume the 60 degree angle.
. Since it shows a 30 60 90, this looks like is opposite the 30 degree angle.
