Answer: y = 2.1
Explanation:
Considering the given triangle XYZ, to determine side y, we would apply the sine rule. It is expressed as
a/SinA = b/SinB = c/SinC
Where a, b and c are the length of each side of the triangle and angle A, Angle B and angle C are the corresponding angles of the triangle. Likening it to the given triangle, the expression becomes
x/SinX = y/SinY = z/SinZ
Therefore
y/Sin 15 = 8/Sin 94
Cross multiplying, it becomes
ySin94 = 8Sin15
0.998y = 8 × 0.259
0.998y = 2.072
y = 2.072/0.998
y = 2.1
