Answer:

option C. -\frac{5}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have  that

The point (-5,-12) belong to the III quadrant

so

The value of the cosine is negative

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

Find the value of the hypotenuse

h^{2}=5^{2}+12^{2}\\ h^{2} =25+144\\ h^{2}=169\\h=13\ units

The value of cosine of angle θ is the ratio between the side adjacent to angle θ and the hypotenuse

cos(\theta)=-\frac{5}{13}

Question: What is the volume of the box? Explain how you found your solution.
Vikki [24]

The volume of the box is 100 cubic meter.

Step-by step explanation:

Given data:

Length of the box = 10 m

Width of the box = 5 m

Height of the box = 2 m

<u>To find the volume of the box:</u>

Volume of the box = length × width × height

                               = 10 m × 5 m × 2 m

                               = 100 cubic meter

Hence the volume of the box is 100 cubic meter.
