Question

The length of the shorter leg of a 30°,60°,90° triangle is 10 cm. find the length of the
altitude to the hypotenuse,

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The length of hypotenuse=20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Shorter leg of triangle=10 cm

In triangle ABC,

$\frac{Opposite\;side\;of\;angle \theta}{Hypotenuse}=sin\theta$

Taking $\theta=30^{\circ}$

Substitute the values then, we get

$\frac{10}{AC}=sin 30$

$\frac{10}{AC}=\frac{1}{2}$

Using $sin 30=\frac{1}{2}$

$AC=2\times 10=20cm$

Hence, the length of hypotenuse=20 cm
