Trigonometry problem



?
60
47
adjacent
hypotenuse
oposite
cos=47/60
?= 38.4
To find this problem i had to go through a lot of thinking so that I didn't
mix it up. The first thing that i had to do was to see what formula i had to
use. I looked at the problem I saw that i have hypotenuse and adjacent,
I knew that cos = adjacent /hypotenuse so I was ready to solve. I
divided 47 by 60 in my calculator then press second cos and second
answer and I found 38.4 which is the answer.
Surface Area:
5 feet
4 feet
4 feet
SA= p.h+2 bases
16.5+2b
80+ 2b
80+32
SA=112 feet square

In order for me to do this problem I
had to use the surface area formula.
As I knew that surface area equal to
perimeter time height plus two
bases so It just follow what it says to
solve this. so i times four by four to
find the perimeter once I found it i
times it by five which is the height of
the shape. After i times four by four
to find the a bases and times it by
two because I had to find two bases.
I took the two bases and added
them with the solution I found at first
which give me the surface area.
