In a right angle triangle, we'll note one cathetus as b
and the other one as c and the hypothenuse as a.
According
to the rule of 30 degrees angle, a cathetus opposite to the angle pi/6 (meaning 30
degrees) is half from hypothenuse.
If b is the opposite
cathetus to pi/6 angle, that means that b=a/2.
In this way,
we can find the other cathetus length, using Pythagorean
theorem.
a^2=b^2 + c^2
a^2 =
a^2/4 + c^2
a^2 - a^2/4 =
c^2
3a^2/4 =
c^2
[a*sqrt(3)]/2=c
cos pi/6=adjacent
cathetus/hypotenuse
cos pi/6=
[a*sqrt(3)]/2/a
cos pi/6=sqrt3/2
sin pi/3=sin
60=opposite cathetus/hypotenuse
sin pi/3=
[a*sqrt(3)]/2/a
sin pi/3 =
sqrt3/2
cos pi/6+sin pi/3 = sqrt3/2 +
sqrt3/2
cos pi/6+sin pi/3 =
2sqrt3/2
cos pi/6+sin pi/3 = sqrt
