Question

How do you solve for x and y??

Answer 1

`cos(51)= (y)/(9) \\ 0.62932039105=(y)/(9)`
multiply by 9 on both sides

`5.66388351945=y \\ or \\ 5.7=y`

Now to find x it's opposite side and the hypotenuse
SOH

`sin(51)= (x)/(9) \\ 0.77714596145= (x)/(9)`
Multiply by 9 on both sides

`6.99431365311=x \\ or \\ 7=x`
