Imagine a right triangle where a and b are the legs and c is the hypothenuse.
Pitagora: a²+b²=c²
Divide by c
(a/c)²+(b/c)²=1
But a/c=sin(B) and b/c=cos(B)
Thus sin² + cos² = 1
Basically you know that the 2 wholes from both sides cancel out.
Set up the equation, 5/8 = 3/12 + 3/x
3/x = 5/8 - 3/12
Set them to have a common denominator, 3/x = 15/24 - 6/24
3/x = 9/24
Simplify 9/24 and you will get 3/8
3/x = 3/8
Obviously this means x = 8
