Question

A right triangle is shown. What is the approximate length of the hypotenuse of the triangle? ​

Answer 1

Option D.

Explanation:

To find hypotenuse
`c` use formula:

`\text{Cos(B)}=(a)/(c)`

After substituting
`B=62^0` and a = 7 we have:

`\text{cos}(62^o)=(7)/(c)`

`0.4695=(7)/(c)`

`c=(7)/(0.4695)`

`c=14.9104`
