The length of the hypotenuse of a 30-60-90 triangle is 16 what is the length of the longer leg

The length of the hypotenuse of a 30-60-90 triangle is 16 what is the length of the longer leg

Answer:

if the hypotenuse of a triangle is 16,then the shorter leg is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

since hypotenuse h is twice the shorter leg.

so 16 ÷ 2 = 8.

also the shorter leg is 1/2 the hypotenuse so for correction.

8 × 2 =16.
