In the right triangle below, sin X= 3/5. This is the same as the cosine of which angle? Explain why this is true.

Answer:
sin(X)=cos(Z)
Step-by-step explanation:
trig ratio sin(x) = O/H
(where O = side opposite the angle and H = hypotenuse)
Therefore, if angle = X, O = 27 and H = 45
[tex]\implies sin(X)=\dfrac{27}{45}\\\\\implies sin(X)=\dfrac35[/tex]
trig ratio cos(x) = A/H
(where A = side adjacent to the angle and H = hypotenuse)
So if A = 27 and H = 45 then
[tex]cos(Z)=\dfrac{27}{45}\\\\\implies cos(Z)=\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]sin(X)=cos(Z)[/tex]
