Step 1

<u>Find the value of MN</u>

In the right triangle MNL

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

ML^{2} =MN^{2} +NL^{2}

Solve for MN

MN^{2}=ML^{2}-NL^{2}

in this problem we have

ML=25\ units\\NL=15\ units

Substitute in the formula above

MN^{2}=25^{2}-15^{2}

MN^{2}=400

MN=20\ units

Step 2

<u>Find the value of cos (M)</u>

we know that

In the right triangle MNL

cos(M)=\frac{adjacent\ side\ angle\ M}{hypotenuse}=\frac{MN}{ML}=\frac{MN}{25}

Substitute the value of MN

cos (M)=\frac{20}{25}=\frac{4}{5}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The value of cos(M) is \frac{4}{5}
