Find the remaining sides of a {eq}30^{\circ}-60^{\circ}-90^{\circ} {/eq} triangle if the shortest side is 1.
Question:
Find the remaining sides of a {eq}30^{\circ}-60^{\circ}-90^{\circ} {/eq} triangle if the shortest side is 1.
Right Triangle:
The right triangle is a polygon with three sides and a right angle of 90{eq}^{\circ} {/eq}. We can find different types of right triangles, which we solve them depending on the given information. We can apply the trigonometric ratios or the Pythagorean theorem; however, with angles of 30-60-90 degrees, we can use other techniques to find the values of the sides quickly.
