Answer:

5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the mnemoic SOH CAH TOA, we know that ...

... Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

In this triangle, that means ...

... cos(A) = AC/AB

We are given the value of AC, but we need to find the value of AB. We can do that using the Pythagorean theorem:

... AB² + AC² +BC²

... AB² = 15² +36² = 1521 = 39²

... AB = 39

Then ...

... cos(A) = 15/39 = (5·3)/(13·3)

... cos(A) = 5/13

    --------

9999=1008+(n-1)9

9999-1008=(n-1)9

n-1=8991/9=999

n=999+1=1000

9999=1000+(n-1)1

9999-1000=n-1

n=8999+1=9000

numbers divisible by 3=3000

first number=1002

last number=9999

9999=1002+(n-1)3

(n-1)3=9999-1002=8997

n-1=2999

n=2999+1=3000
