Answer 5

are you here?

Answer 6

tan (x) = 8/15 = .5333333
So arc tan (.533333) = 28.072 Degrees = angle x

angle z = 180°-90° -28.072°
angle z = 61.928

angle y = 90° -61.928°
angle y = 28.072°

Line cd = 8

cos (ang y) = cd/b
b = 8 / cos (28.072)
b = 8 / 0.88236

b = 9.0665941339

b² = a² + 8²
a² = 9.0665941339² -64
a² = 82.2031291891 -64
a² = 18.2031291891

a = 4.2665125324

(Better recheck all that just to make sure).
