Answer:

2a) x=40.44, y=2.816

Explanation:

2a)

Use SOHCAHTOA. You have the opposite (2.4) and the hypotenuse (3.7)

so you use SOH, which means sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse

so x = sin⁻¹ (2.4 / 3.7) ≈ 40.44.

To find y, we use, CAH: cos(x) = y / hypotenuse

y = cos(x) * hypotenuse = cos(40.439793) * 3.7 ≈ 2.816
