Answer :

Answer:  D) 10

===========================================================

Explanation:

y = 5 because the long leg is exactly sqrt(3) times that of the short leg.

The short leg is always opposite the 30 degree angle.

The hypotenuse x is twice that of y, so x = 2y = 2*5 = 10

All of these rules only apply to 30-60-90 triangles. You can use trig ratios as an alternative route.
