In ΔUVW, the measure of ∠W=90°, WV = 39, UW = 80, and VU = 89. What ratio represents the cosine of ∠U?

cos ∅ = 80/89

Step-by-step explanation:

As required from the question the picture below represent a triangle UVW . The angle W = 90°. The sides WV = 39 , VU = 89 and UW = 80. The triangle forms a right angle triangle .

Such triangle one can establish trigonometric relationship using the SOHCAHTOA principle.

The question requested us to find the ratio that represent the cosine of  ∠U.

The ∠U is represented as ∅ .

Therefore,

cos ∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse

adjacent = 80. The adjacent side is the non hypotenuse side that is next to the given angle.

hypotenuse = 89 . Hypotenuse is the longest side of a right angle triangle and it opposite the right angle.  

cos ∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos ∅ = 80/89

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
