Answer 1

Answer:

The values of x and y are 23.83 and 31.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Perpendicular = 20 units

Angle, $\theta=40^{\circ}$

We need to find the values of x and y.

Using trigonometry,

$\tan(40)=\dfrac{20}{x}\\\\x=\dfrac{20}{\tan(40)}\\\\x=23.83$

To find y use Pythagoras theorem,

$y^2=23.83^2+20^2\\\\y=31.1$

So, the values of x and y are 23.83 and 31.1.
