Based on the diagram above, a student determined the hypotenuse of the triangle to be 6√3 Determine if the student's answer is correct. If it is not correct, find the correct length.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The student answer is wrong. The correct length of the hypotenuse is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete without diagram. Find the diagram attached below.

The longest side of the right angled triangle is the hypotenuse.

The side facing the angle 30° is the opposite side of the triangle.

To find the hypotenuse, we will use the SOH CAH TOA method in trigonometry identity.

According to SOH:

Sin30° = Opposite/Hypoenuse

Sin30° = 6/Hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 6/sin30°

Hypotenuse = 6/0.5

Hypotenuse = 6×2

Hypotenuse = 12

The student answer is wrong. The correct length of the hypotenuse is 12
