Answer:

sin(y)=15/17

cos(y)=8/17

tan(y)=15/8

Explanation:

We know that sinФ=Opposite/Hypotenuse, cosФ=Adjacent/Hypotenuse, and tanФ=Opposite/Adjacent. We can remember this with the phrase SOH-CAH-TOA.

We know our angle is Y. The opposite side of Y is 15. The adjacent side of Y is 8. The hypothenuse is 17.

Now, we can plug the given information into the formulas and get the solutions.

sin(y)=15/17

cos(y)=8/17

tan(y)=15/8
