There are many ways to find x and y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You will want to use trig functions to make it simple: Sine cosine tangent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we are using tangent right now but I don't knw what to do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve this equation to start: \[\tan (30)=\frac{ 10 }{ y }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would you find the value for y using this equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the tangent of 30

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can start there but I would rearrange my equation in terms of y first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1) divide by tangent on both sides 2) multiply by y on both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide by tan(30) to be specific

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How to set I up like this? tan (30) = y 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go to the equation editor in the bottom lefthand corner

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\tan \div 30 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hi, do you think you could work out the whole thing? im lost

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I gave you the initial equations and the steps to solve it. Where are you lost?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\tan(30)=\frac{ 10 }{ y }\] 1) divide by tan(30) on both sides 2) multiply by y on both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this should get you started
