Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow. Find the value of x and the value of y
A. x=15, y= 10 √3
B. x=20, y= 10 √3
C. x=20 √3, y= 5 √3
D. x=15, y= 5 √3

Answer 1

Use the SOH CAH TOA

Explanation:

Angle = 60°

x = opposite o

y = adjacent a

10√ 3 = hypotenuse h

To find x we use SOH {sineø = o/h}

Sin 60° = x/10√ 3

x=10√ 3 * sin 60

X=15

You can use Pythagoras theorem or CAH{cosø = a/h}

Cos 60°= y/10√ 3

y=Cos 60° * 10√ 3

y=5√ 3
