Answer:
is this the right question please??
Cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.
In short, we have this equation
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
In the case of cos(A) = 18/19.5 we can see that
adjacent = 18
hypotenuse = 19.5
The side of 18 cm is next to angle 2, so the 18 cm side is adjacent to angle 2 (in contrast, the 7.5 cm side is the opposite leg in relation to angle 2)
So that's why the answer is angle 2
In other words, replace the '2' angle marker with 'A' to be able to write cos(A) = 18/19.5
Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
First lets add 82 + 55 which equals 137, then 137 +47 which equals 184
Now we know that a triangle equals 180 degrees (cannot go over 180), so this tells us x is a negitive number.
-x + 184 = 180
-x = -4
Another way to look at it is; 184 minus what equals 180? 4 does, so it translates into -4.
