The positions of the sun, earth and shooting star form a right angled triangle, where distance between earth and sun is 'y', and the angle 'x°' is given
Now, in a right angled triangle using trigonometry, we can determine a side of the triangle is one of the sides and one of the angles is known
Here, if we use cos x = 
we can determine the distance between the shooting star and the sun. This can be done because we know that the base is 'y', the angle is x° and the hypotenuse represents the distance between the sun and the shooting star
Note: cos values for each x are definite.
So with this, I will be using the substitution method. With the first equation, substitute (y+3) into the x variable and solve for y:
Next, now that we have the value of y, substitute it into either equation to solve for x:
<u>And this is how you get your final answer (5,2).</u>
