Question

If g=27 and F=54º, find h. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

The correct answer is B = 15.9

Explanation:

h = 27 cos 54 = 15.9

Answer 2

The correct answer is option b. 15.9

Explanation:

It is given that, a right angled triangle FGH right angled at G

To find the value of h

From the figure we get,

g=27 and F=54º

Cos F = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse

Cos F = FG/FH = h/g

h = g * Cos F = 27 * Cos 54 = 27 * 0.5877 = 15.87 ≈ 15.9

Therefore the correct answer is option b. 15.9
