Question

Draw the right triangle $PQR$ if angle $P$ is $90$, and the hypotenuse is $12$ m. Find the longest and shortest side. when $\angle$QRP = ${30}^o$.

Answer 1

In given right angle

$\angle P=90°$

$QR=12cm$

BY using $30°-60°-90°$ triangle, we get special relationship between its sides.

All of us know in right angle triangle hypotenuse is longest side.

So, $\text{longest side}=12m$

$\text{shortest side}=\frac{12}{2}=6m$
