\n" ); document.write( " To solve this problem, you must know a theorem, statement of which given below:-
\n" ); document.write( " \"If the angles of a triangle are 30, 60 and 90 degrees, then the side opposite to 30 degrees is 1/2 of the hypotenuse and the side opposite to 60 degrees is \"sqrt%283%29%2F2\"times the hypotenuse.\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "The smallest side is always opposite to the smallest angle of the triangle.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "The smallest side is = 3 inches
\n" ); document.write( "So the hypotenue = 3*2 = 6 in.
\n" ); document.write( "the side opp. to 60 degrees = \"sqrt%283%29%2F2\" times the hypotenuse.
\n" ); document.write( "So the side opp. to 60 degrees = \"sqrt%283%29%2F2\"*6
\n" ); document.write( "= \"3sqrt%283%29\"inches.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I hope this is clear to you. \r
