The trigonometric ratio, cos E of the right triangle is 5 / 13.
How to find the angles of a triangle?
A triangle is a polygon with three sides. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
A right triangle is a triangle that has one of its angles as 90 degrees.
The sides and angles of a right triangle can be found using trigonometric ratios. The sides of a right triangle base on its sides are as follows;
- opposite side
- adjacent side
- hypotenuse side
Therefore,
cos E = adjacent / hypotenuse
Hence,
let's find the hypotenuse side using Pythagoras theorem,
24² + 10² = c²
c = √576 + 100
c = √676
c = 26
cos E = 10 / 26
Therefore,
cos E = 5 / 13
