Please Solve For X And Y On The Triangle class=

Sagot :

Answer:

x = 8 , y = √12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the large triangle

By Pythagoras

x^2 = 4^2 + + (4√3)^2 =

       = 16 + 48

       = 64

So x = 8.

Also for the small right triangle

4^2 = y^2 + (x - 6)^2

y^2 = 4^2 - (x - 6)^2

        = 16 -  (8-6)^2

        =  12

y = √12.
