Question

9 60° A) x = 18, y=9V6 B) x=9V3, y=9V3 C) x = 18, y=9V3 D) x =9V3, y=9V6

Answer 1

Answer:

C. x = 18, y = 9$\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In a 30-60-90 triangle,

longer leg = $\sqrt{3}$ (shorter leg)

hypontenuse = 2(shorter leg)

In your case, the shorter leg = 9

therefore, y = 9$\sqrt{3}$    and x = 2(9) = 18
