Trigonometry

  • [Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA
  • [Right Triangles Only] cosθ = adjacent over hypotenuse

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

Angle θ = 45°

Adjacent Leg = 25

Hypotenuse = x

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Substitute in variables [cosine]:
    \displaystyle cos(45^\circ) = (x)/(25)
  2. [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply 25 on both sides:
    \displaystyle 25cos(45^\circ) = x
  3. Rewrite:
    \displaystyle x = 25cos(45^\circ)
  4. Evaluate:
    \displaystyle x = (25√(2))/(2)
