Question

Cos60° = x divided by 16

Answer 1

`\Huge \boxed{x=8}`

Explanation:

`\sf \displaystyle cos(60\° ) = (x)/(16)`

Multiplying both sides by 16.

`\sf \displaystyle 16 \cdot cos(60\° )= (x)/(16) \cdot 16`

Simplifying the equation.

`\sf \displaystyle 16 \cdot (1)/(2) = x`

`\sf 8=x`

Answer 2

• Answer:

x = 8

• Explanation:

cos60° = x/16

1/2 = x/16

2x = 16

x = 16 : 2

x = 8
