Answer:


\text{(B) }\cos 40^(\circ)=(x)/(60)

Explanation:

In any triangle, the cosine/cos of an angle is equal to its adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse (longest side) of the triangle. (a/h)

The angle marked 40 degrees has an adjacent side of
x and the hypotenuse of the triangle is 60.

Therefore, we have the equation:


\boxed{\cos 40^(\circ)=(x)/(60)}
