Question

Can I get help on this question? Please explain the process of how to solve it too.

Answer 1

x = 13

y = 18.38

Explanation:

tan 45 = x/13 (tangent = opposite / adjacent)

1 = x/13

multiply both sides by 13

x = 13

cos 45 = 13/y (cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse

0.7071 = 13/y

multiply both side by y

0.7071y = 13

divide both side by 0.7071

y = 18.38
