Question

For an angle with measure x in a right triangle,
sin x= 15/17
and
and tan x= 15/8 . What is the value of
cos x ?

Answer 1

Answer:

cos x=8/17

Step-by-step explanation:

soln:

given,

sin x(p/h)=15/17

•°•p=15 and h=17

tan x(p/b)=15/8

•°•p=15 and b=8

cos x=?

we know,

cos x=b/h

•°•cos x=8/17
