Question

Determine the value of cos 79º 15' (cosine of 79 degrees, and 15 minutes). In this case, minutes are 1/60 of a degree.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 0.186524036

Step-by-step explanation:

Cosine 79° 15'

But, 1° = 60'

Thus; 15' = 15/60 = 0.25°

Therefore;

cos 79° 15' = cos 79.25°

Cos 79.25° = 0.186524036

                  = 0.186524036
