Answer:

option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

tan30° = 17/x

=>1/√3 = 17/x

=>x = 17√3

for y,

sin30° = 17/y

=>1/2 = 17/y

=>y = 34

For this case we must find the value of y (Hypotenuse) and the value of x (leg adjacent to the 30 degree angle) of the triangle shown.

By definition:

[tex]Tangent (30) = \frac {17} {x}\\x = \frac {17} {Tangent (30)}\\x = \frac {17} {\frac {\sqrt {3}} {3}}\\x = \frac {17 * 3} {\sqrt {3}}\\x = \frac {51 \sqrt {3}} {3}\\x = 17 \sqrt {3}[/tex]

Now, we look for the value of y:

[tex]Sine (30) = \frac {17} {y}\\y = \frac {17} {sine (30)}\\y = \frac {17} {\frac {1} {2}}\\y = 34[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x = 17 \sqrt {3}\\y = 34[/tex]
