Im re-writing this question, and wasting more points because the first person who answered this literally answered my math question as an English question and then asks for brainlest. The moon forms a right triangle with the Earth and the Sun during one of its phases, as shown below: A scientist measures the angle x and the distance y between the Earth and the Sun.

Using complete sentences, explain how the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the moon and the Sun. (10 points)

Let's call the distance between the moon and sun as z. The scientist can calculate the numerical value of sin x° and then write sin x° as y / z. They can then set the numerical value of sin x° equal to y / z and then solve for z.
