Help this is trigonometry I think 35 points!!
kolezko [41]

Answer:

y = 16.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for altitude of a right triangle which is given as:

h = √(xy)

Where,

h = 14

x = 12

y = y = ?

Plug in the values

14 = √(12*y)

14² = (√(12*y) (squaring both sides)

196 = 12*y

196/12 = 12y/12 (division property of equality)

16.3 = y (nearest tenth)

y = 16.3
