Question

Cos 0 = 12/13. Find sin 0. A. 5/12 B. 12/5 C. 13/12 D. 5/13

Answer 1

Answer:

Sine θ = 5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Cos θ = 12/13

Sine θ =?

Next, we shall determine the opposite. This can be obtained as follow:

Cos θ = Adjacent /Hypothenus

Cos θ = 12/13

Adjacent = 12

Hypothenus = 13

Opposite =?

Hypothenus² = Opposite² + Adjacent²

13² = Opposite² + 12²

169 = Opposite² + 144

Collect like terms

169 – 144 = Opposite²

25 = Opposite²

Take the square root of both side

Opposite = √25

Opposite = 5

Finally, we shall determine the Sine θ. This can be obtained as follow:

Opposite = 5

Hypothenus = 13

Sine θ =.?

Sine θ = Opposite / Hypothenus

Sine θ = 5/13
