Plz explain how to do this if possible.

Answer 1

Answer: a=3.74

Step-by-step explanation:

first use 15 to solve for  x and z. x=7.5 and z=12.99 or 13. Once you know x you can use that to solve for y and a. y=6.5 and x=7.5 and using pythagorean theorem you will find that a= the square root of 14 or 3.74.

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to solve for x

sin 30 = opposite/ hypotenuse

sin 30 = x/15

15 sin 30 = x

15 (1/2) =x

15/2 =x

Then we can use

cos 60 = adjacent/ hypotenuse

cos 60 = a/x

Multiply by x

x cos 60 =a

15/2 (1/2) =a

15/4
