Step-by-step explanation:

To find x use the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

sin60° = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] , then

sin60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{14\sqrt{3} }{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

x [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 28[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( divide both sides by [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] )

x = 28

To find y use the tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] , then

tan60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{14\sqrt{3} }{y}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by y )

14[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = y [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( divide both sides by [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] )

y = 14
