Question

How can I solve this?

Answer 1

• x = 60°;
• y = 30°.

-----------------------------

We see that the hypotenuse is twice the length of one of the legs in the given right triangle:

• 8 = 4 * 2

It is possible when this is a special 30°-60°-90° triangle and the angle opposite to same leg is 30°.

So y = 30°, then x is complementary angle:

• x = 90° - 30° = 60°
