  1. Question 1

    Q1. A right triangle has an angle of 60° and hypotenuse of 10 m. What is the length of the side opposite the 60° angle?

    • A) 5 m
    • B) 5√3 m
    • C) 10√3 m
    • D) 5 / √3 m

    Answer: 5√3 m

    Explanation: Using sin(60°) = opposite / hypotenuse, we get opposite = 10 * sin(60°) = 10 * √3 / 2 = 5√3 m.
