SinA = Opp/hyptoneuse CosA = Base/Hyp so Cos A = sqrt3/2 SinA = 1/2 Opposite side = 1 Hyp side =1 2 By pythogeras theorem, Base=sqrt(Hyp^2 - Opp^2) Base = sqrt(4 - 1) Base = sqrt3

Sin^2 A + Cos^2 A =1 (1/2)^2 + cos^2 A =1 Cos A = √ CosA =√(3/4) CosA =√(3) /2

sin A = 1/2 sin A= sin 30 (degree) so, A = 30degree. Therefore Cos A= Cos 30degree =root3/2 = 0.8660 that is the Answer. Thank you.

Sin^A + Cos^A=1...so if SinA= 1/2..then Sin^A= 1/4..so Cos^A= 3/4...Hence Cos A=sqrt3/2

SinA=1/2 but Sin30°=1/2 hence A=30° CosA=cos30°=√3/2
