Using cosine, we can find the hypotenuse by using the formula below;

hypotenuse = adjacent / cos ∅

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>Trigonometric ratios:</h3>

Trigonometric ratios are ratios of sides of a right angled triangle.
The simplest ratios are cosine, sine and tangent.

Using cosine, the hypotenuse side can be solved as follows:

cosine ∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

cross multiply

hypotenuse cos ∅ = adjacent

divide both sides by cos ∅

hypotenuse cos ∅ / cos ∅ = adjacent / cos ∅

Therefore,

hypotenuse = adjacent / cos ∅

Answer:

As we know, if we add up the interior and exterior angles of one corner of a triangle, we always get 180. the exterior angle in question is equal to the sum of the other two angles in the triangle
