Answer:

y = 0.47

x = 0.91

Step-by-step explanation:

From the right angled triangle Given :

Applying trigonometry :

To Obtain y :

We use :

Tan θ = opposite / hypotenus

Tan 25 = y / 1

y = 1 * tan 25

y = 0.4663076 * 1

y = 0.47

For x :

We use :

Cosθ = adjacent / hypotenus

Cos 25 = x / 1

0.9063077 = x / 1

x = 0.9063077 * 1

x = 0.9063077

Hence, x = 0.91
