Answer:

10 and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

let Cairo's age be x then Poppy's age is x + 5 , then

x + x + 5 = 25

2x + 5 = 25 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2x = 20 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 10

That is Cairo is 10 years old and Poppy is 15

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the sine/ tangent ratios to solve for x and y

note sin60° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ and tan60° = $\sqrt{3}$

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{3\sqrt{6} }{y}$

ysin60° = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

y × $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

multiply both sides by 2 and divide by $\sqrt{3}$

y v= 6 $\sqrt{\frac{6}{3} }$ = 6 $\sqrt{2}$

tan60° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{3\sqrt{6} }{x}$

xtan60° = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

x × $\sqrt{3}$ = 3 $\sqrt{6}$

divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$

x = 3 $\sqrt{\frac{6}{3} }$ = 3 $\sqrt{2}$
