Answer:
A. x = 13
y = (13√3)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Reference angle = 30°
Hypotenuse = (26√3)/3
Adjacent = x
Opposite = y
✔️Apply CAH to find x:
Cos 30 = Adj/Hyp
Cos 30 = x/(26√3)/3
√3/2 = x*3/(26√3) (cos 30 = √3/2)
√3/2 = 3x/(26√3)
Cross multiply
2*3x = (26√3)*(√3)
6x = 26*3
6x = 78
x = 78/6
x = 13
✔️Apply SOH to find y:
Sin 30 = Opp/Hyp
Sin 30 = y/(26√3)/3
Sin 30 = y*3/(26√3)
½ = 3y/(26√3) (sin 30 = ½)
Cross multiply
2*3y = (26√3)*1
6y = 26√3
Divide both sides by 6
y = (26√3)/6
y = (13√3)/3
16 is the rational number, hope this is helpful
I think you divide 18.96 by 3 to get the amount for one pound cost then go pound for pound there
