Answer:

z = 50

y = 25

Explanation:

Using the 30, 60, 90 triangle rule

you can figure this out.

The rule says

With a 30, 60, 90 triangle

Given the shorter leg, (side across the 30 degree angle,

To find longer leg (side across the 60 degree angle):

Multiple shorter leg by radical 3.

To find hypotenuse (side across the 90 degree angle):

Multiple shorter leg by 2.

Thus

Shorter leg (side opposite 30 degree): 25

Longer leg (side opposite 60 degree):

25 radical 3

Hypotenuse(side opposite 90 degree): 50

Answer:

7) sin 60° = 25√3/Z

0.8660 = 25√3/Z

Z = 50

8) using the Pythagorean theorem:

50² = (25√3)² + y²

2500 = 1875 + y²

y² = 625

y = 25
