decide cos 30* with help from the figure, show your work

#

idk how to get to the answer

#

but its √(3) ÷ 2

solid nacelle
#

First of all how can we even do it,,
It is not a right angled traingle na..
So we can't apply trigno over it

fresh rock
#

You are new hear i see

fresh rock
#

then you get 2 identical right angled triangles

solid nacelle
#

Oh got it

#

But how is the question

#

Pls explain it to me

fresh rock
#

its confusing but

#

decide cos30 with the help of the figure

solid nacelle
#

Yes but how does that mean
You must have done questions like this before na

fresh rock
#

nope

#

idk its quite confusing

#

what grade are u in or like taht

solid nacelle
#

I think we can prove this by pytho
We r supposed to prove that why cos 30 is root 3 by 2 with the help of the given diagram

fresh rock
#

yes

solid nacelle
#

Let me try

fresh rock
#

alr

#

you should try do this one instead

ye but

#

basically

#

just calculate X

So I think this is how we r going to do it
Firstly in the left most traingo of 20 degreee angle, we find the value of half a

Similarly in the 15 degree traingle we get the value of the remaining value of a from there.

Now add these values to get the full traingle A.

Now we can use the angle sum property on traingle ab and the left most corner..

As we already know angle a and by adding 20 in 90 we can get the value of the left most corner of the traingle which will be 110.

After that we will get the value of the left part of 15 degree angle. After angle sum property

Finally we form a line and find x
Ufff😮‍💨

@fresh rock

#

is this right?

fresh rock
#

What is X then

#

hm

solid nacelle
#

It will lie between 100 to 120

#

90 to 120

fresh rock
#

X?

solid nacelle
#

Yes😶

#

No

fresh rock
#

You want to know the answer?

solid nacelle
#

That replies

fresh rock
#

alr

solid nacelle
#

That answers

fresh rock
#

but its not between 90-120

solid nacelle
#

😞

#

But what's wrong with my methodology?

fresh rock
#

idk tbh

weak terrace
#

youll be more likely to recieve help if you translate the text in the image

solid nacelle
#

It's just find x

fresh rock
#

Oh the other one nvm

Cos of 30 is sqrt3/2 because cos is the X or the adjacent
