Question 1068264: When given that the hypotenuse is 96cm with a right angle triangle: if the sharpest angle is 30 degrees then what is the length of the right angle to the more obtuse angle?
"ABC is a right angled triangle. if B = 90°, AC = 96 cm, C = 30°.
AB = cm"
(AC is hypotenuse)

"...,what is the length of the right angle to the more obtuse angle?"

The right angle is a right angle. It is not obtuse and it is not acute. Your triangle is described as special 30-60-90 type. The hypotenuse is the longest side and the right angle which is opposite the hypotenuse, is the largest angle.

1.  Your wording formulation is absolute nonsense and does not deserve any discussion.


2.  Regarding your formal description, the answer is 96%2F2 = 48.
