Use special right triangles to solve for the exact value of x.
A. 4
B. 9
C. 16

Answer:
Option C. x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given right angle triangle Base or adjacent side = 8 units
Height or opposite side of the angle = x units and hypotenuse = x units
We have to tell the value of x.
Since we know in a right angle triangle cosx = Base / hypotenuse
cos 60 = 8/x
1/2 = 8/x
x = 8 × 2
x = 16
Therefore Option C. 16 units is the answer.
