Hello, basicly I'm sitting here doing math and I stumble across a problem I just can't seem to find an answer to without using my calculator (Which I shouldn't have to use.
determine the exact value of cos v if:
sin v=5/13 and v is located in the first quadrant
What I do is just take sin^-1(5/13)=22.62
cos(22.62)=0.923 and I get the answer but the book says no caculator and the answer in the book is cos v=12/13 (Same as cos(22.62))
I would be ever so grateful if you could help me out to understand what it is I'm suppoes to do here to end up with cos v=12/13. I have tried plenty of times without using a calculator but my answers seems to be way of
Thanks
