You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find x, y and z
:
Use the cosine of 45 degrees to find x; side adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(45) =
x = .707 * 12
x = 8.485
:
In the larger triangle:
use the tangent of 60 degrees to find y; side opposite/side adjacent
tan(60) =
y =
y = 6.928
:
Use the sin of 60 to find z; side opposite/hypotenuse
sin(60) =
z =
z = 13.857
