Given:
in a triangle, one angle is 60 degree and the length of the opposite side is 5cm
To find:
Find the circumradius of the triangle
Solution:
From given, we have the data as follows.
in a triangle, one angle is 60 degree and the length of the opposite side is 5cm
Circumradius is half the value of the hypotenuse.
Now, we will compute the hypotenuse value.
The hypotenuse is calculated as follows.
We will consider the trigonometric function 'sin'.
sin 60 = o/h
√3 / 2 = 5 / h
h = 5 × 2 / √3
h = 10/√3 cm
The circumradius of the triangle is,
h/2 = (10/√3)/2 = 5/√3 cm
Therefore, the circumradius of the triangle is 5/√3 cm
