How do you calculate #cos^-1 (2.3/5.4)#?

Answer 1

64.8°

The question is asking " What angle in a right-angled triangle has the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse as #2.3/5.4#?
First find the ratio in decimal form by dividing. #2.3÷5.4 = 0.4259259#

This is the value of the Cos of our known angle. To find the angle you either need to use a calculator or a table.

#Cos x = 0.4259259 rArr x = 64.8°#

Do the calculation on a calculator, then press 2nd function/shift and Cos. Some calculators need the = sign pressed, others will give tha answer immediately.

You can also key it in as: shift cos (2.3÷5.4) =

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
