let
a = Opposite side
b = adjacent side
10 = hypotenuse
sin30 = degrees
cos30 = degrees
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Solving for the opposite side
sinθ = a/10
sin30 = a / 10
10sin30 = 10(a/10)
10sin30 = a
10(.5) = a
5 = a
The answer is a = 5
The opposite side = 5
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Solving for the adjacent side
cosθ = b/10
cos30 = b/10
10cos30 = 10(b/10)
10cos30 = b
10(0.866025404) = b
8.660254038 = b
The answer is b = 8.66 rounded to two decimal places.
The adjacent side is 8.66
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The perimeter is
10 + 5 + 8,66 = 23.66
The perimeter is 23.66

considering you're staring at particular extraordinary triangles, you may use the actuality that the 30 degree attitude is on the midsection of the hexagon. In a 30-60-ninety triangle, the facet opposite the 30 is = one million/2 the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is 183. So, the facet opposite the 30 degree attitude is one million/2 that, or ninety one.5. Now multiply by utilising 12 to get 1098.

This requires basic trigonometry. The sine of an angle in a right triangle is defined to be the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
So, the side opposite the 30 deg angle divided by 10 = sin (30) = 0.5, and multiplying both sides by 10 gives opp = 5.
Similarly adj / hyp = sin (60) = 0.866, and adj = 8.66.
The perimeter is 10 + 5 + 8.66 = 23.66.
You could also solve this problem using cosines.

This is half of a 60-60-60 triangle, so short side is 5.
from Pythagoras, squares of sides in right triangle, here ratios of sides are 1 : (sq.rt.3) : 2
so sides are 5 : (5 x 1.732) : 10.
perimeter is 5 + 8.66 + 10 = 23.66

10+5+8.66 = 23.66, or to be precise 15+5sqrt(3)
let the side opposite the 30 angle be x, and the other one y
x/10 = sin(30) = 0.5
Therefore x = 5
By pythagoras y^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 so:
y = +sqrt(10^2-5^2) = sqrt(75) = 5sqrt(3) = 8.66025
The perimeter equals the sum of the 3 sides:
Perimeter =10+5+5sqrt(3)

By pythagora's theorem:
a*a + b*b=c*c (a,b,c are sides)
ht.=csin(60 deg.)
base=ccos(60 deg.)
perimeter=10+10*(3^0.5)/2 + 10*(0.5)
=10+8.66+5=23.66 units
