Question

    In a right-angled triangle, one angle is 60°. If the hypotenuse is 12 cm, find the length of the side opposite the 60° angle.

    A 6√3 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 8 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 12 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 6 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In a right-angled triangle with a 60° angle, Let the opposite side to angle 60° is x Sin 60° = x/12 X = (√3/2) * hypotenuse. x   = (√3/2) * 12 = 6√3 cm. Correct answer: a) 6√3 cm
