Question

5.what are the valúes of x and y? (1 point)

Answer 1

Below

Explanation:

First find the value of the common vertical side

12/v = v/16

v^2 = 192

v = 8 sqrt 3

Now use pyhtag theorem to find x and y

y^2 = 12 ^2 + (8 sqrt3)^2

y = sqrt (336) = 4 sqrt (21)

now find x the same way

x^2 = 16^2 + (8 sqrt(3))^2 = 448

x = sqrt (448 ) = 8 sqrt 7
