Algebra.Com's Answer #826042 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Draw this \n" ); document.write( "AB is 16 sqrt(3), the hypotenuse. \n" ); document.write( "In this 30-60-90 rt triangle, AC is therefore 8 sqrt(3), half the hypotenuse. \n" ); document.write( "That makes BC 16 \n" ); document.write( "so BD is 8 \n" ); document.write( "- \n" ); document.write( "Also, triangle ACD has a 30 degree angle with adjacent side 8 sqrt(3). That makes the opposite side 8 sqrt(3)/sqrt(3) or 8. \n" ); document.write( " |
