What are the lengths of the two legs of a 30° - 60° - 90° triangle of the length of the hypotenuse is 12(square root of 3)?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

One leg is 12%2Asqrt%283%29%2Asin%2830%5Eo%29 = 12%2Asqrt%283%29%2A%28sqrt%283%29%2F2%29 = 18 units long.

The other leg is 12%2Asqrt%283%29%2Asin%2860%5Eo%29 = 12%2Asqrt%283%29%2A%281%2F2%29 = 6%2Asqrt%283%29 units long.
