Answer:
D. x ≈ 3.3, y = 15.7
Step-by-step explanation:
x = Opposite
y = Adjacent
16 = Hypotenuse
θ = 12°
To find x, we solve using the Trigonometric function of Sine
sin θ = Opposite/ Hypotenuse
x = Opposite
sin 12 = x/16
Cross Multiply
x = sin 12 × 16
x = 3.3265870531
Approximately, x ≈ 3.3
To find y, we solve using the Trigonometric function of cosine
cos θ = Adjacent/ Hypotenuse
y = Adjacent
cos 12 = y/16
Cross Multiply
y = cos 12 × 16
y = 15.650361612
Approximately, y ≈ 15.7
Therefore, x ≈ 3.3, y = 15.7
Option D is correct
