Question

Solve for mzL
Enter your answer in the box. Round your final answer to the nearest degree.

Answer 1

`\cos(L )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{5}}{\underset{hypotenuse}{16}} \implies \cos^(-1)(~~\cos( L )~~) =\cos^(-1)\left( \cfrac{5}{16} \right) \\\\\\ L =\cos^(-1)\left( \cfrac{5}{16} \right)\implies L \approx 71.79^o`

Make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.
