Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1.
The sine of an angle is defined as; Opposite side/the Hypotenuse. From the right angle triangle given; sin x =5/13.
The cosine of an angle is defined as; Adjacent side/Hypotenuse. From the right angle triangle given; cos x =12/13.
The tangent of an angle is defined as; Opposite side/Adjacent side. From the right angle triangle given; tan x =5/12.
Part 2.
We use the same definitions of the trigonometric ratios above;
sin y =12/13
cos y =5/13
tan y =12/5
Part 3.
The sin∠X and the cos∠Y are equal, their value is 5/13. The sine of angle is always equal to the cosine of its complement. In this case, ∠X+∠Y =90 hence ∠X is a complement of ∠Y.
Part 4.
The tangents of ∠X and ∠Y are inverses of each other. The tangent of an angle will always be equal to the inverse or reciprocal of the tangent of its complement.
