Explanation:
since right angle triangle,then:
180-(90+35)=B=55
use cosB=opposite/hypotenuse
cos55=x/12
x=cos55x12
x=6.88
9514 1404 393
Answer:
9.8
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship involving the adjacent side and the hypotenuse:
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
cos(35°) = x/12
Multiplying by 12 gives x:
x = 12·cos(35°) = 12×0.81215
x = 9.8
