A graphing calculator can show you a graph of each expression, which you can compare to the offered choices.
_____
You can make use of the relations ...
... sin(a)+sin(b) = 2sin((a+b)/2)cos((a-b)/2)
... cos(a)+cos(b) = 2cos((a+b)/2)cos((a-b)/2)
... cos(a)-cos(b) = -2sin((a+b)/2)sin((a-b)/2)
Then you have ...

Answer:
21 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Call the triangle ABC, with the right angle at B, the hypotenuse AC=25, and the given leg AB=10. The altitude to the hypotenuse can be BD. Since the "other leg" is BC, we believe the question is asking for the length of DC.
The right triangles formed by the altitude are all similar to the original. That means ...
AD/AB = AB/AC . . . . . . ratio of short side to hypotenuse is a constant
Multiplying by AB and substituting the given numbers, we get ...
AD = AB²/AC = 10²/25
AD = 4
Then the segment DC is ...
DC = AC -AD = 25 -4
DC = 21 . . . . . centimeters
