We are given the angle measure, measure of hypotenuse and we are to find the base(Adjacent) side of the angle.

Cosine relates all these three as:


cos(x)= (Base)/(Hypotenuse) \\ \\ cos(20)= (Base)/(2) \\ \\ Base=2 *(cos20) \\ \\ Base=1.88

Rounded to nearest hundredth, the measure of side adjacent to the angle is 1.88
