Answer:
x=29.4
Step-by-step explanation:
To help find the sides of a triangle, I use SOHCAHTOA.
SOH - CAH - TOA
S=O/H ([tex]Sine=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] )
C=A/H ([tex]Cosine=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] )
T=O/A ([tex]Tangent =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] )
Let's find x first. We know 2 parts of the triangle: the adjacent leg, and the angle that is opposite of that.
So it would be tangent (tan).
opposite = 17
adjacent = 30°
Plug these numbers into the calculator and you should get your answer.
[tex]\frac{17}{tan(30)} = 29.44486372...[/tex]
x=29.4
Try to do y on your own and let me know if you have any questions!
Also correct me if I'm wrong on anything.
Hope this information helps!
