If the length of the longer leg in a 30°-60°-90° triangle is 5V3, what is the length of the shorter leg?
A. 3
B. 5
C. 5v2
D. 10

Answer:
B. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = length of shorter leg
longer leg = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] times the shorter leg
5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = x[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]
x = 5
