Answer 1

@phi

Answer 2

So for this one I believed it would fall under cosine. So I took the given info and set it up like so:
21cos(43)

Answer 3

And for my answer I got 15.36

Answer 4

cos(43)= c/21
c= 21 * cos(43) = 21 * 0.73135= 15.358

or 15.36 rounded to 2 decimal places

Answer 5

Alright so I did get it correct.Good.
