Answer:
E. 0.759
Step-by-step explanation:
You can take this right triangle to have a base length side LM , height of LN and a hypotenuse of MN
The sine of angle ∠LMN is 0.759, find the value of ∠LMN
∠LMN=49.38°
Find angle ∠LNM
You know sum of angles in a triangle add up to 180°, given that this is a right-triangle, the base angle is 90° hence
∠LNM=180°-(90°+49.38°)
∠LNM= 180°-139.38°=40.62°
Find cos 40.62°
Cos 40.62°=0.7590
