Answer:

[tex]y = 56.6208[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached triangle

Required

Find y

To find y, we make use of the relationship between sides lengths 44 & y and angle 39

The relationship is:

[tex]cos(39) = \frac{44}{y}[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]cos(\theta) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = \frac{44}{cos(39)}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{44}{0.7771}[/tex]

[tex]y = 56.6208[/tex] -- approximated
