Final answer:

The values of y and x are complementary angles. Hence the correct answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the relationship between y and x given that sin(yº) = cos(xº), we can use the fact that sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 for any angle θ. Since sin(yº) = cos(xº), we can write the equation as sin²(yº) + sin²(xº) = 1. Therefore, y and x are complementary angles, so the correct statement is B) The values of y and x are complementary angles.
