The given triangle is a 30°- 60°- 90° triangle.

Here the length of the hypotenuse is y, length of the shorter leg is 8, and the length

of the longer leg is x.

The 30°- 60°- 90° triangle has the property that the length of its hypotenuse is

twise the length of the shorter leg, and the length of the longer leg is times

to the length of the shorter leg.

So, by 30°- 60°- 90° triangle property, or 16.

And or 13.85.

The value of x is or 13.85 and y is 16.
