Question

Help pleaseeee explain too if you can

Answer 1

x=10

y=
`10√(3)`

Explanation:

Since there is a 30 degree angle, it is a special right triangle, 30 60 90 triangle. The shorter leg represents "a," the longer leg represents "a√3", and the hypotenuse represents 2a.

The triangle has a hypotenuse of 20 and we are trying to find x and y. x=10 because x is the opposite side of 30 degrees and x is half of the hypotenuse. y=
`10√(3)` because we already know the x value and y is opposite of 60 degrees. As mentioned before, the longer leg represents a√3.

Hope this helps and have a good day.
