Answer :

Answer:

x = (9√2)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 45°

Hypotenuse length = 9

Adjacent length = x

Apply the trigonometric ratio CAH:

Cos 45° = Adj/Hyp

Cos 45° = x/9

Multiply both sides by 9

9*Cos 45 = x

9*1/√2 = x (cos 45 = 1/√2)

9/√2 = x

Rationalize

(9*√2)/2 = x

x = (9√2)/2
