So this is considered a "special triangle." The 30-60-90 triangle states that if the short leg is x, then the hypotenuse is 2x and the long leg is x√3.
Since we have the short leg, to find the hypotenuse, or y in this case, multiply the short leg by 2:
17 × 2 = 34
Next, to find the long leg, or x in this case, multiply the short leg by √3:
17 × √3 = 17√3
In short, x = 17√3 and y = 34. The correct option is the last option.
