Question

Some help please? I’m lost

Answer 1

1/2.

Explanation:

Sine = opposite side / hypotenuse.

The side opposite 60 degrees has length√3 and the hypotenuse = 2.

By Pythagoras the side adjacent to the angle 60 = √( 2^2 - 3)

= 1 unit.

So cos 60 = adjacent / hypotenuse = 1/2.

Answer 2

1/2

Explanation:

When you find the sine of an angle, it is the opposite side / hypotenuse. This means that the hypotenuse of this triangle is 2 and the side opposite to 60° is √3. This means that the side adjacent to 60° is 1 (Pythagorean Theorem). When you find the cosine of an angle, it is the adjacent side / hypotenuse, which in this case will be 1 / 2. Hope this helps!
