The given triangle UVW is a right angle triangle. This is because one of its angles is 90 degrees. The sum of the two other angles is 180. To determine Cos U, we will apply trigonometric ratio.
Cos U = adjacent side/ hypotenuse.
Looking at the triangle with C as the reference angle,
Adjacent side = 12
Hypotenuse( always the longest side of the triangle) = 13
