Answer:

To find X you'll need this formula Tan 30, and this one to find y cos 30.

Explanation:

tan 30 = 9 / x.

tan 30*x = 9

x = 9 / tan 30

x = 15.58

To find y, the value of X will be needed, which is 15.5 that we just found.

Cos= A/H

Cos 30 = 15.58/ y

Cos 30 * y = 15.58

y = 15.58/ cos 20

y = 17.99
