use the cosin low what say
cos x° = adjacent side divide hypotenuse
OpenStudy (dreamsawakes):
13 divided by 12?
563blackghost (563blackghost):
We see that we know of the hypotenuse as well as the adjacent side of the angle so we would use the trig ratio of cos...
\(\Huge{\cos(x)=\frac{12}{13}}\)
To find x we would invert it...
\(\Huge{\cos^{-1}(\frac{12}{13})=x}\)

or you write x = arccos (12/13 = ?

Hmmm what kind of cal are u using?
OpenStudy (dreamsawakes):
a scientific cal. I punched in 13 divided by 12
563blackghost (563blackghost):
I see now. You have to press \(\Large{\cos^{-1}}\) and then type 12 divided by 13....
