You need to know the 30-60-90 triangles rules for lengths. (b, b√3, 2b)
the given side length of corresponds to the 30° angle. So, b = 8
side y corresponds to the 60° angle so it is b√3. Since we determined that b = 8, then b√3 is 8√3.
side x corresponds to the 90° angle so it is 2b. Since we determined that b = 8, then 2b = 2(8) = 16
Answer: x = 16, y = 8√3
