This is a right triangle with angle measuring $81^{\circ}$, an opposite side $O = 1200 px$. The angle measuring $81^{\circ}$ is adjacent to $A = x$, unknown, and a hypotenuse of $H = y$, unknown.
Applying trigonometric identities:
$\sin(81^{\circ}) = \frac OH = \frac {1200}{y}$
$\cos(81^{\circ}) = \frac AH = \frac xy$
$\tan(81^{\circ}) = \frac OA = \frac {1200}y$.
So...
