Question

Find the missing side lengths leave your answer as a racials simplest form

Answer 1

x= 40

y= 20

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin 60 = 20 sqrt(3) / x

x = 20 sqrt(3) / sin 60

x = 20 sqrt(3)/ (sqrt(3) /2)

x = 20 *2

x = 40

cos theta = adj / hyp

cos 60 = y/x

x cos 60 =y

40 * 1/2 = y

20 =y
