1. **State the problem:** We have a right triangle with angles 30°, 60°, and 90°. The side opposite 30° is given as $22\sqrt{3}$, and we need to find the lengths of sides $x$ (hypotenuse) and $y$ (side opposite 60°).
2. **Recall the properties of a 30°-60°-90° triangle:**
- The side opposite 30° is $\frac{1}{2}$ the hypotenuse.
- The side opposite 60° is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ times the hypotenuse.
3. **Set up the relationships:**
Let the hypotenuse be $x$.
Then the side opposite 30° is $\frac{x}{2}$, and the side opposite 60° is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}x$.
4. **Use the given side opposite 30°:**
$$22\sqrt{3} = \frac{x}{2}$$
Multiply both sides by 2:
$$2 \times 22\sqrt{3} = \cancel{2} \times \frac{x}{\cancel{2}}$$
$$44\sqrt{3} = x$$
5. **Find side $y$ opposite 60°:**
$$y = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} x = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \times 44\sqrt{3}$$
Simplify inside the multiplication:
$$y = 44 \times \frac{\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3}}{2} = 44 \times \frac{3}{2}$$
$$y = 44 \times 1.5 = 66$$
**Final answers:**
$$x = 44\sqrt{3}$$
$$y = 66$$
