Answer:

Part 1) [tex]AB=30.9\ units[/tex]

Part 2) [tex]AC=29.9\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

Part 1

Find the length side AB

we know that

[tex]sin(A)=\frac{BC}{AB}[/tex] ----> by SOH (opposite side divided by the hypotenuse)

substitute the given values

[tex]sin(15^o)=\frac{8}{AB}[/tex]

solve for AB

[tex]AB=\frac{8}{sin(15^o)}=30.9\ units[/tex]

Part 2

Find the length side AC

we know that

[tex]tan(A)=\frac{BC}{AC}[/tex] ----> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)

substitute the given values

[tex]tan(15^o)=\frac{8}{AC}[/tex]

solve for AC

[tex]AC=\frac{8}{tan(15^o)}=29.9\ units[/tex]
