Solution

Given : A :B :C = 1:2:3Let the common multiple of the angles be x.Then, A = x, B = 2x and C = 3xWe know thatA +B +C = 180° angle sum propertyx+2x+3x =180°6x =180°x =30°Thus, the angles are 30°, 60° and 90°.We draw the triangle as shown below:




BCAB = PerpendicularHypotenuse=sin 30°sin 30° =12Thus,BCAB =12
