Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are isosceles, scalene, equilateral, acute, obtuse and right angled triangle. A right angle triangle is a triangle with one angle being 90°.
Trigonometric ratios is used to show the relationship between the angles and sides of a right angled triangle. Examples are:
sinΘ = opposite/hypotenuse; cosΘ = adjacent/hypotenuse; tanΘ = opposite/adjacent
From the question:
cos(62) = AB/12
AB = 12 * cos(62)
AB = 5.6 cm
