In a ∆ XYZ, /YZ/ = 6cm YXZ = 60o and XYZ is a right angle. Calculate /XZ/in cm, leaving your answer in surd form
A
2√3
B
4√3
C
6√3
D
12√3
correct option: b
(sin \theta = \frac{opp}{hyp}<br /> sin 60^o = \frac{|YZ|}{|XZ|}=\frac{6}{P}<br /> P sin 60^o = 6<br /> P = \frac{6}{sin60^o}<br /> =\frac{6}{\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}}=4\sqrt{3})
