Answer: cos(L) = 0.3684

Explanation:

To solve, we need to identify what its asking first.

It wants us to find the value of the cos L

We know that Cosine is equivalent to the
(adjacent)/(hypotenuse) sides.

We also know that Cos L is an angle.

If we look at the picture, we first need to locate where L is. Then we need to find the cosine of it.

The adjacent side to L is 7.

The hypotenuse is 19.

we can rewrite this information into an equation:


cos (L)=(7)/(19)

Since it wants cos L value to the nearest hundredth, we will use a calculator to divide.

cos(L) = 0.3684
