Answer:

The found value of r is:

r = 94.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

cosθ = Base / Hypotenuse

θ is the always the angle between base and hypotenuse

In this right angles triangle, the angle θ is given 63°.

Which means that the Base is 43 and the hypotenuse is r

Base = 43

Hypotenuse = r

Substitute θ=63°, Base = 43 and hypotenuse = r in the formula of cosθ mentioned above:

cos 63° = 43/r

Rearrange

r = 43/cos63°

r = 43/0.454

r= 94.7
