tan (60) = √3/1 = 173 The right triangle is special because it is the only right triangle whose angles are a progression of integer multiples of a single angle If angle A is 30 degrees, the angle B = 2A (60 degrees) and angle C = 3A (90 degrees) The shortest leg must then measure $18/√3$ And the hypotenuse will be $2 (18/√3)$ Again, we are given two angle measurements (90° and 60°), so the third measure will be 30° Because this is a triangle and the hypotenuse is 30, the shortest leg will equal 15 and the longer leg will equal 15√3In a triangle, the ratio of the sides is always in the ratio of 1√3 2 This is also known as the triangle formula for sides yy√32y
