Given that x = 5.7 m and θ = 43°, work out BC rounded to 3 SF

Answer:
BC ≈ 4.17
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle
cos43° = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BC}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BC}{5.7}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 5.7 )
5.7 × cos43° = BC , then
BC ≈ 4.17 ( to 3 sf )
