In a triangle the length of the side opposite the angle which measures 30 degree is $$9\sqrt{3}$$ cm, what is the length of the side opposite to the angle which measures 60 degree?
In the given triangle, two angles are 30° and 60°, => Third angle = 90°
In a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is always twice as long as the side opposite the 30° angle and the side opposite the 60° angle is √3 times as long as the side opposite the 30° angle.
The ratio of sides opposite 30°, 60° and 90° angles =1 : $$\sqrt{3}$$ : 2
Length of the side opposite the 30° angle = $$9\sqrt{3}$$ cm
=> Length of side opposite the 60° angle = $$\sqrt{3} \times 9\sqrt{3} = 27$$ cm
=> Ans - (A)
