Answer:
x = 10
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying Trigonometry ratio
sin∅ = opposite/hypotenuse
cos∅ = Adjacent/hypotenuse
From the diagram,
sin60° = 5√3/x
make x the subject of the equation
x = 5√3/sin60°
But, sin60° = √3/2
x = 5√3/(√3/2)
x = (5√3)(2/√3)
x = 10.
Also, applying
cos60° = y/x
Where x = 10, cos60° = 1/2
y = xcos60°
y = 10(1/2)
y = 5
