Answer:
Answers are :
x = 7.5 , y =
, z = 
a = 9.375 and b = 5.625
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached figure , consider right triangle ABC.
∠B = 60° , BC = 15 {∵ BC = a + b}
We need to find AC = z
Using sin function,
i.e sin(60°) = 
or sin(60°) = 
or AC = 15×sin(60°)
or AC = 
Also, AB = x = 15×cos(60°) = 
Next,
Consider right triangle ADC
AD = y, AC = z = 
∠C = 30°
Using sin function to get y.
i.e sin(30°) = 
or sin(30°) = \frac{y}{
}[/tex]
or y =
×sin(30°)
or y = 
Also, DC = b =
×cos(30°)
b = 
Therefore, a= 15 - b = 15 - 5.625 = 9.375
Hence we got,
x = 7.5 , y =
, z = 
a = 9.375 and b = 5.625
