Answer:

The answer is

[tex]a = 9 \sqrt{3} \: and \: b = 9[/tex]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine/ cosine ratios in the right triangle and the exact values

sin60° = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] , cos60° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

sin60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a}{18}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 18 )

18 × sin60° = a , then

a = 18 × [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex] = 9[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

-------------------------------

cos60° = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{b}{18}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 18 )

18 × cos60° = b , then

b = 18 × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 9
