Answer:
0.42
Step-by-step explanation:
use the attached as reference
recall that for a right (90°) triangle, with any acute angle θ,
cos θ = length of adjacent side / length of hypotenuse
in our case, for angle I, the adjacent side is HI = 36 units and the hypotenuse is IJ = 85 units
by the above formula,
cos I = length of adjacent side / length of hypotenuse
= 36 / 85
= 0.42353
= 0.42 (rounded to nearest hundredth)
