Priya says, “I know everything about a right triangle with a 30 degree angle and a hypotenuse with length 1 cm. Here, look.“
  • The other angle is 60 degrees.
  • The leg adjacent to the 30 degree angle is 0.866 cm long.
  • The side opposite the 30 degree angle is 0.5 cm long.
Han asks, “What would happen if a right triangle with a 30 degree angle has a hypotenuse that is 2 cm instead?“
Help them find the missing angles and side lengths in the new triangle. Explain or show your reasoning.
