Triangle ABC is a triangle with a right angle at vertex B. Length BC = 6cm and angle A = 30 degrees. How long is length AC?

Draw the triangle. BC is opposite to the angle given and we need to find the hypotenuse. Using SOHCAHTOA, we must use sine. Rearrange to find hypotenuse and then put the numbers in. Length AC = 12cm
