o. The shorter of the two diagonals is 8cm long. Find the length of the longer one.
-
A.
8\(\sqrt{3}\)
-
B.
\(\frac{16}{\sqrt{3}}\)
-
C.
\(\sqrt{3}\)
-
D.
\(\frac{10}{\sqrt{3}}\)
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
\(\frac{x}{4}\) = \(\frac{\tan 60}{1}\)
x = 4 tan60
= 4\(\sqrt{3}\)
BD = 2x
= 8\(\sqrt{3}\)
