Question

In a right triangle:

The cosine of an angle, cos(x), is equal to the ratio of the HYPOTENUSE divided by the side ADJACENT to X: H/A
True
False

Answer 1

false

Explanation:

cos= a/h

that is sine

Answer 2

False

Explanation:

cos(x) = adjacent side divided by hypotenuse, not the other way around.

The hypotenuse is always the longest side in a righ triangle, so cos(x) will never be greater than 1.
