Answer:


cos(A)=(8)/(17)

Explanation:

The correct question is

Find the cosine of ∠A

The picture in the attached figure

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

The cosine of angle A is equal to divide the adjacent side to angle A by the hypotenuse of the right triangle

so


cos(A)=(AC)/(AB) ----> by CAH

substitute the given values


cos(A)=(8)/(17)
