Lets mathematically calculate sin(x) and cos(y) So sin = opposite/hypotenuse cos = adjacent/hypotenuse With respect to the angle you are working with Can you calculate sin(x) and cos(y) ?
No i can't
opposite side of the angle x over the hypotenuse. That is sin(x) similarly the adjacent side of the angle y over the hypotenuse, that is cos(y)
please plug in the numbers now, calculate sin(x) and cos(y). no simplifying necessary
So how do i start the calculation

I'm sorry but i'm confused
what is the opposite side of x? what is the hypotenuse? sin(x) = the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse
The hypotenuse is unknown
Use pythagorean theorem to calculate it
144 + 25 = C^2
169 = C^2
and c = 13. now sin(x) = ?
12/13 = 0.923076
With respect to the angle you are working with thats cos(x)
5/13 = 0.3846153
Can you just solve it for me because i need an example
u just did, leave it as 5/13. Now what is cos(y)?
5/13
so what is the relationship between sin(x) and cos(y)?
Sin X = 5/13 and Cos y = 5/13
Complementary
They are both equal
