Find θ. Round to the nearest degree. hypotenuse = 14
adjacent = 5

5.1.3: Right Triangle Trigonometry

the answer is c

Step-by-step explanation:

when solving for theta, we are given the side length adjacent to it (5) and the length of the hypotenuse ( 14).

the trigonometric function that deals with adjacent and hypotenuse values is cosine.

you can use SOH CAH TOA

stands for :

sin = opposite/hypotenuse

cos = adjacent/ hypotenuse

tan = opposite/adjacent

we dont know theta so :

cos(theta) = 5/14

cos = about 69

check :

cos(69) = 5/14

                   cos(69) = 0.35836794954

                   5/14 = 0.35714285714
