G.GSRT.5 30-60-90 Right Triangle

[color=#000000]Take a few minutes to interact with the applet below.[br]Then, answer the questions that follow. [/color]
[color=#1e84cc]Suppose the measure of angle [i]A[/i] is [/color][i][color=#1e84cc]x.[/color] [br][/i][color=#ff00ff]What would the measure of angle [i]B[/i] be (in terms of [i]x[/i])?[/color]
[color=#000000]Again, [color=#1e84cc]suppose the measure of angle [i]A[/i] is [i]x[/i][/color]. [color=#666666]What would the measure of angle [i]C[/i] be (in terms of [i]x[/i])[/color]? [/color]
[color=#000000]Take your responses to the first 2 questions and write an equation, in terms of [i]x[/i], that expresses the relationship among the 3 angle measures of this triangle. What is the value of [i]x[/i]? What are the measures of this triangle's 3 angles? [/color]
[color=#000000]How does the length of the hypotenuse of this triangle compare with the length of this triangle's shorter leg? [/color]
[color=#000000]Suppose the shorter leg's length ([i]BC[/i]) = 4 cm. [br]What would [i]AB[/i] be? [/color]
[color=#000000]Take the information from the previous question. Use this information to write (and solve) and equation in order to find [i]AC[/i]. Write this distance in simple radical form. [/color]
[color=#000000]Suppose [i]BC[/i] = 5. What is [i]AB[/i]? Use this information to solve for [i]AC[/i] in simple radical form. [/color][br][color=#000000]Suppose [i]BC[/i] = 6. What is [i]AB[/i]? Use this information to solve for [i]AC[/i] in simple radical form. [br][color=#000000]Suppose [i]BC[/i] = 7. What is [i]AB[/i]? Use this information to solve for [i]AC[/i] in simple radical form.
