Answer: x=11.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we need to know the concept of trigonometry
- Sine (sin)-- Opposite/Hypotenuse ⇒ O/H
- Cosine (cos)-- Adjacent/Hypotenuse ⇒ A/H
- Tangent (tan)-- Opposite/Adjacent ⇒ O/H
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given
θ = 32°
Hypotenuse = 14
x = adjacent side (relative to θ)
Solve
cos ( 32 ) = x / 14
x = 14 cos ( 32 )
x≈11.9
