Answer:

A

Explanation:

Its a right angle, so you have to use trigonometry.

To find x , you use sin60° = opposite/hypotenuse

opposite = x and hypotenuse = 5 . So,

sin60°= x/ 5

5sin60° = x

put the value into your calculator you ' ll get:


x = (5 √(3) )/(2)

To find y, cos60°= adjacent/hypotenuse

adjacent= y and hypotenuse = 5. So,

cos60°= y/5

5cos60°=y


y = (5)/(2)

Hope I was able to help. Good luck!<3
