Sagot :

Answer:

x = 8[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] , y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine and cosine ratios in the right triangle and the exact values

sin60° = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] , cos60° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

sin60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

2x = 16[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 8[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

----------------------------------------------------------

cos60° = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{y}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

2y = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 8
