Cos( 30 ) = 19√3 / x

√3 / 2 = 19√3 / x

Simplify 3 from both sides

1 / 2 = 19 / x

Multiply both sides by x

1 /2 × x = 19 / x × x

x / 2 = 19

Multiply both sides by 2

x / 2 × 2 = 19 × 2

x = 38

_____________________________

Sin( 30 ) = y / x

1 / 2 = y / 38

Multiply both sides by 38

38 × 1 / 2 = 38 × y / 38

38 / 2 = y

19 = y

y = 19
