Answer:

cos(π/6) = (√3)/2

Explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you ...

Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

You know that π/6 radians is 180°/6 = 30°, so you can find the adjacent side and hypotenuse in the triangle with the 30° angle. The figure then tells you ...

cos(30°) = Adjacent/Hypotenuse = (√3)/2

So, your answer is ...

cos(π/6) = (√3)/2
