Question

Use the image of the triangle to answer the question

Answer 1

$\cos (\theta) = \dfrac{adj}{hyp}$

$\cos (39) = \dfrac{x}{17}$

$x= 17\cos (39)$

$x= 13.2 \text { m}$

Answer 2

So you would do cos(39) times 17.
x= cos(39)*17
x= .777*17
x= 13.21
And since it says round to the nearest tenth, you would put 13.2 m for the answer.
