The value of x and y in the ΔABC is 24 and 46.4.
Given to us
AC = 34
∠B = 45°
∠C = 30°
What are the basic Trigonometric functions?
[tex]Sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]Cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]Tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
where perpendicular is the side of the triangle which is opposite to the angle, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which is opposite to the 90° angle.
What is the length of the perpendicular in ΔABC?
In ΔADC
[tex]Sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]Sin (\angle C)=\dfrac{AD}{AC}[/tex]
[tex]Sin (30^o)=\dfrac{AD}{34}\\\\AD = 17[/tex]
[tex]Cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]Cos (\angle C)=\dfrac{DC}{AC}[/tex]
[tex]Cos (30^o)=\dfrac{DC}{34}\\\\DC = 29.44486[/tex]
What is the value of x?
In ΔABD
[tex]Sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]Sin (\angle B)=\dfrac{AD}{AB}[/tex]
[tex]Sin (45^o)=\dfrac{17}{x}\\\\x= 24.04\approx24.0[/tex]
[tex]Tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
[tex]Tan (\angle B)=\dfrac{AD}{BD}[/tex]
[tex]Tan (45^o)=\dfrac{17}{BD}\\\\BD = 17[/tex]
What is the value of y?
We know that line BC is the sum of line BD and DC, therefore,
[tex]y = BC\\\\y= BD+DC\\\\y = 17+29.44486\\\\y = 46.44486[/tex]
Hence, the value of x and y in the ΔABC is 24 and 46.4.
