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 ∅

Is this a true or false solution? y = 12x; (3,32)

Elenna [48]

Substitute the x-value and see if you get the corresponding y-value. The corresponding y-value an x-value of 3 in this equation should be

$y = 12(3)$

$y = 36$

Since the coordinate (3,32) does not represent that, it is a false solution
