Step-by-step explanation:

Draw the triangle formed by the ray.

The hypotenuse of the triangle is:

c² = a² + b²

c² = (-5)² + (2√7)²

c² = 25 + 28

c = √53

Therefore:

cos β = -5 / √53

Or, as a proper fraction:

cos β = -5√53 / 53

rhombus has sides of length 10 cm. and the angle between two adjacent sides is 76 degrees. Find the lengths of the other diagona
lisabon 2012 [21]
Let the length of one of the diagonals be 2x and the other be 2y, then
cos (76/2) = x/10
x = 10 cos 38 = 7.88 cm

sin (76/2) = y/10
y = 10 sin 38 = 6.16 cm
