See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²---->  equation 1

applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2

the answer is
the hypotenuse is (3√2)/2

Jackson used 8/9 of a case of soda to fill 1/3 of the soda machine.
how many cases does it take to fill the soda machine = ?
1/3 means three parts of the soda machine, it means if we fill with 8/9 of a case three times soda machine will be full so,
8/9 + 8/9 + 8/9 = 24/9 
it means it takes the case of soda between 2 and 3.
2.667 approx. cases of soda it take to fill the soda machine.
