Here is a figure. Use the ratio :: for the side lengths of a 30-60-90 right triangle to find the lengths of the sides of triangle ABC.



(1) In triangle ADC, use AC=8 and ACD=30 degrees to determine AD and DC.
(2) In triangle CDB, use CD from (1) and angle BCD=60 degrees to determine AB and BD.

Your final answer for the perimeter of triangle ABC should be

Given: △АВС, m∠ACB = 90° CD ⊥ AB , m∠ACD = 30°, AC = 8 cm Find: Perimeter of △ABC
AC, the shorter leg of ΔABC is given as 8 cm.

BC, the longer leg of ΔABC = 

AB, the hypotenuse of △ABC = 2(8) = 16 cm.

Perimeter of △ABC =
