Express the cosine of angle U as a ratio of the given side lengths
A) 12/13
B) 13/12
C) 5/12
D) 5/13
Answer:
Option A) [tex]12/13[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The cosine of angle U is equal to divide the adjacent side to angle U (UV) by the hypotenuse of the right triangle (UW)
so
[tex]cos(U)=\frac{UV}{UW}[/tex]
substitute the given values
[tex]cos(U)=\frac{12}{13}[/tex]
