Answer:

  • 4/5 or 0.8

----------------------

Find the hypotenuse using Pythagorean theorem:


  • c=√(a^2+b^2) =√(3^2+4^2)=√(25)=5

If θ is the smallest angle, then opposite side of this angle is the smallest leg, 3 units and therefore adjacent leg is 4 units.

Find cos θ:

  • cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse
  • cos θ = 4/5 or 0.8
