Answer:
x = 4 , y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the sine / tangent ratios in the right triangle and the exact values
sin60° = and tan60° =
, then
sin60° = =
=
( cross- multiply )
x = 4
( divide both sides by
)
x = 4
and
tan60° = =
=
( multiply both sides by y )
y = 2
( divide both sides by
)
y = 2
So if you subtract the 0 out from the left side, the equation is now 
. Since a x is common in both of the terms on the left side, you can factor it out, now making the equation look like 
. When factoring, each of the separate things (x and (x-3)), must equal zero while the other one doesn't matter. So in order for the equation to be 0, the only potential options for x is 0 and 3. Therefore x=0 and x=3 are the two solutions
