Based on the given triangle, the cosine of the 30 degree angle is:
P.S.
It is not 1/3 (third option)


Answer:
[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember SOHCAHTOA
The cosine of an angle in a right triangle is the adjacent sides length divided by the hypotenuses length
In this case, for the angle 30 degrees, the adjacent length is [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] and the hypotenuse's length is 2
So, the cosine of the 30 degree angle is the first option:
[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]
