Answer:

x=6√3

y=12√3

Explanation:

This is a 30 60 90 triangle.

The side opposite from the angle 60 is x√3, which makes 18=x√3, which eventually solves to x=6√3

The side opposite from the 90 degree angle is 2x, so multiply 6√3 by 2, which is 12√3, making y equal 12√3

I hope this helps :)

Answer:

x is about 10.39, y is about 20.78

Explanation:

15)


\tan 30=(x)/(18)\\x=18 \cdot \tan 30\approx 10.39\\\cos 30 =(18)/(y)\\y=(18)/(\cos 30)\approx 20.78
