Answer:

D. 12.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem requires the use of trigonometric ratios. This one specifically uses the cosine ratio as it provides the hypotenuse and is asking for the side that is adjacent to the angle.

cos(40°)=a/16

cos(40°)×16=a/16×16

cos(40°)×16=a

a=12.256 ft

The length of side a is D. 12.3 ft.

_______________


Let  \mathsf{\theta=cos^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right).}


\mathsf{0\le \theta\le\pi,}  because that is the range of the inverse cosine funcition.


Also,

\mathsf{cos\,\theta=cos\!\left[cos^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)\right]}\\\\\\
\mathsf{cos\,\theta=\dfrac{4}{5}}\\\\\\ \mathsf{5\,cos\,\theta=4}


Square both sides and apply the fundamental trigonometric identity:

\mathsf{(5\,cos\,\theta)^2=4^2}\\\\
\mathsf{5^2\,cos^2\,\theta=4^2}\\\\
\mathsf{25\,cos^2\,\theta=16\qquad\qquad(but,~cos^2\,\theta=1-sin^2\,\theta)}\\\\
\mathsf{25\cdot (1-sin^2\,\theta)=16}

\mathsf{25-25\,sin^2\,\theta=16}\\\\
\mathsf{25-16=25\,sin^2\,\theta}\\\\
\mathsf{9=25\,sin^2\,\theta}\\\\
\mathsf{sin^2\,\theta=\dfrac{9}{25}}


\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\sqrt{\dfrac{9}{25}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\sqrt{\dfrac{3^2}{5^2}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\dfrac{3}{5}}


But \mathsf{0\le \theta\le\pi,} which means \theta lies either in the 1st or the 2nd quadrant. So \mathsf{sin\,\theta} is a positive number:

\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\dfrac{3}{5}}\\\\\\
\therefore~~\mathsf{sin\!\left[cos^{-1}\!\left(\dfrac{4}{5}\right)\right]=\dfrac{3}{5}\qquad\quad\checkmark}


I hope this helps. =)
