Find the cos(A). Reduce the ratio if necessary.

Answer 1

`\boxed{\mathrm{cos(A) = (3)/(5) }}`

Explanation:

`\displaystyle \mathrm{cos(\theta) = (adjacent)/(hypotenuse) }`

The adjacent side to angle A is 30 units. The length of the hypotenuse of the triangle is 50 units.

`\displaystyle \mathrm{cos(A) = (30)/(50) }`

The fraction can be simplified.

Answer 2

`\boxed{Cos A = 3/5}`

Explanation:

Cos A = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Where Adjacent = 30 and Hypotenuse = 50

Cos A = 30/50

Cos A = 3/5
