The value of cos θ in the given figure is 0.98.
<h3>
What is cosine of an angle?</h3>
The cosine of an angle is defined as the sine of the complementary angle.
The complementary angle equals the given angle subtracted from a right angle, 90.
cos θ = sin(90 - θ)
For example, if the angle is 30°, then its complement is 60°
cos 30 = sin(90 - 30)
cos 30 = sin 60
0.866 = 0.866
<h3>Cosine of an angle with respect to sides of a right triangle</h3>
cos θ = adjacent side / hypotenuse side
adjacent side of the given right triangle is calculated as follows;
adj² = 10² - 2²
adj² = 100 - 4
adj² = 96
adj = √96
adj = 9.8
cos θ = 9.8/10
cos θ = 0.98
Thus, the value of cos θ in the given figure is 0.98.

C.
Because it’s falling it has acceleration in the y direction. If you have acceleration, you usually also have velocity, and since kinetic energy is KE= Mv^2 you know you have it. It also has potential energy because it has some height to it, and PE= Mgh.

Answer:
a) 17.8 m/s
b) 28.3 m
Explanation:
Given:
angle A = 53.0°
sinA = 0.8
cosA = 0.6
width of the river,d = 40.0 m,
the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp h = 15.0 m,
The river itself was 100 m below the ramp H = 100 m,
(a) find speed v
vertical displacement
putting values h=15 m, v=0.8
............. (1)
horizontal displacement d = vcosA×t = 0.6×v ×t
so v×t = d/0.6 = 40/0.6
plug it into (1) and get
solving for t we get
t = 3.734 s
also, v = (40/0.6)/t = 40/(0.6×3.734) = 17.8 m/s
(b) If his speed was only half the value found in (a), where did he land?
v = 17.8/2 = 8.9 m/s
vertical displacement = 
⇒ 
t = 5.30 s
then
d =v×cosA×t = 8.9×0.6×5.30= 28.3 m
