Answer:
E. 0.759
Step-by-step explanation:
You can take this right triangle to have a base length side LM , height of LN and a hypotenuse of MN
The sine of angle ∠LMN is 0.759, find the value of ∠LMN
∠LMN=49.38°
Find angle ∠LNM
You know sum of angles in a triangle add up to 180°, given that this is a right-triangle, the base angle is 90° hence
∠LNM=180°-(90°+49.38°)
∠LNM= 180°-139.38°=40.62°
Find cos 40.62°
Cos 40.62°=0.7590
Start with
We observe that both fractions are not defined if . So, we will assume
.
We multiply both numerator and denominator of the first fraction by 3 and we sum the two fractions:
We multiply both sides by :
We move everything to one side and solve the quadratic equation:
We check the solution:
which is true
