Assuming that 30-60-90 refers to the angles (in degrees), the ratio of the longer leg to the hypotenuse would be 1:cosine(30) = 1:sqrt(3)/2 or 2:sqrt(3)

Could 8 8 and 8 represent the length of the sides of a triangle?
Yes and it would be an equilateral triangle.
Could 3 3 5 represent the length of a triangle?
Sure, why not?
How are isosceles and scalene different?
An isosceles triangle has two sides that are equal length, and the other side would be a different length. A right triangle could be an isosceles triangle. On the other hand, a scalene triangle has all of its sides different lengths.
What could be a ratio of the length of the longer-leg of a 30-60-90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?
In such a triangle, the sides will always be in the ratio, 1, 2 (hypotenuse) and sqrt(3) So the ratio you want is sqrt(3)/2
Could 3 5 and 7 represent the length of the sides of a right triangle?
no it cannot represent as in angle triangle rule it doesnt prove that term
What could be the ratio of the length of the longer leg of a 30-60-90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?
2 Square Root 3 And 4
What could the ratio of the length of the longer leg of a 30 60 90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?
1/2 sqrt(3) = 0.866 (rounded)
How do you work out a length of a triangle?
The way you can work out the length of a triangle is if you are given the height and the area of that triangle ( this works of you don't want to measure it) or you could just measure it.
The segments shown below could form a triangle?
No, it could not. A triangle cannot have a perimeter of length zero.
What could be the ratio of the length of of the longer leg of a 30 60 90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?
In a 30° 60° 90° triangle, the ratio (long leg)/hypotenuse = sqrt(3)/2 ~ 0.866The ratio (short leg)/hypotenuse = 1/2 = 0.5
Triangle has two sides of length 4 and 15 What value could the length of the third side be?
The third side must be longer than 11 and shorter than 19.
What is the length of all 3 sides of a triangle?
They could all be the same length, or two of them could be the same, or they could all be different. In any case, when you add them all up, the number you get is called the "perimeter" of the triangle.
Could 8 8 and 8 represent the length of the sides of a triangle?
Yes and it would be an equilateral triangle.
What could be the length of the third side of a triangle that has two sides of length 10 and 10?
The sum of the two shorter sides of a triangle must be longer than the third. Thus the third side can be any length greater than 0 and less than 20. Examples are 0.5, 2, 5, 10, 15, 17.5, 19.9.
What three measurements could be the length of the side of a triangle?
They could be 3 cm by 4 cm by 5 cm for a right angle triangle.
Could 3 3 5 represent the length of a triangle?
Sure, why not?
In triangle ABC the length of side AB is 13 inches and the length of side BC is 18 inches. What could be the length of side AC?
Without a type of triangle and the associated angle measurements, an answer is impossible.
