Answer:
a = 14.9; b = 11.1
Step-by-step explanation:
SOHCAHTOA:
Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse
Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse
Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent
[tex]cos48[/tex]° : adjacent is 10, and hypotenuse is a
[tex]cos48=10/a; a*cos48=10;a=10/cos48[/tex]
type 10/cos48 into calculator to get a = 14.9
[tex]sin48[/tex]° : opposite is b, and hypotenuse is a
[tex]sin48=b/a; sin48=b/14.9; b=14.9*sin48[/tex]
type 14.9*sin48 into calculator to get b = 11.1
