Question

The Pythagorean Identity states that:

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to pythagoras theorem;

(sinx)²+(cosx)² = 1

Given that sinФ = √3/2

Substitute into the formula

(√3/2)²+(cosx)² = 1

3/4+(cosx)² = 1

(cosx)² = 1 - 3/4

(cosx)²  = 1/4

cos x = √1/4

cos x = 1/2

Hence the value of cosФ is 1/2
