Answer 1

Answer:

Sinx = 5/13

cosy = 5/13

cosy = sinx ; they both share a proportional relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached triangle, since the triangle is right angled, we can use trigonometric functions where ;

sinx° = opposite / hypotenuse

From Pythagoras ;

Hypotenuse = √(opposite² + adjacent²)

Hypotenus = √(12² + 5²)

Hypotenus = 13

Sin x° = opposite / hypotenus = 5 / 13

Sin x° = 5/13

Cos y = adjacent / hypotenus = 5 / 13

Hence,

sinx = cosy

Therefore, they both share a proportional relationship.
