To find: the missing measure of the given
Answer to Problem 49SGR
The value of x is 30 in and value of y is 25.98 in.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
In a right angled triangle with angle measures of 30°, 60° & 90° and smaller leg equal to a, The longer leg is given by
In the current problem, the triangle is a 30°-60°-90°triangle with smaller leg being equal to 15 in.
Thus the hypotenuse will be equal to
Thus the hypotenuse(x) is 30 in.
The longer leg is given by
Conclusion:
Therefore, thevalue of x is 30 in and value of y is 25.98 in.
