In partial quotients, it need several steps before it can find the quotient.
Example :
16 | 478 |
- 320 | 20
158 |
-144 | 9
12
Since 12 is less than 16, it now became a remainder
so the answer is 29 R 12
hope this helps
If you want to find cosP , since angles Z and P are 2 complementary angles then cosZ is the same as cosP so you say the cosP=sinZ=4/5 (property of 2 complement angles in a right triangle)
