Answer:
x = √3
y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The side x, the hypotenuse 2 and the 60 degree angle are related as follows:
x
sin 60 degrees = ----------
2
and so side x is equal to 2 sin 60 degrees, or 2( (√3)/2), or √3.
By the Pythagorean Theorem, x^2 + y^2 = 2^2, or
3 + y^2 = 4, and so
y^2 = 1
so side y has length 1
x = √3
y = 1
