we know that

In a right triangle

the value of the cosine is equal to

[tex]cos(x)=\frac{adjacent\ side\ angle\ x}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

and the value of the sine is equal to

[tex]sin(x)=\frac{opposite\ side\ angle\ x}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

so

First case

[tex]adjacent\ side\ angle\ x=4.3\ units[/tex]

[tex]hypotenuse=6.7\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]cos(x)=\frac{4.3}{6.7}[/tex]

[tex]x=cos^{-1} (\frac{4.3}{6.7})[/tex]

therefore

The first case is the solution

Second case

[tex]opposite\ side\ angle\ x=4.3\ units[/tex]

[tex]hypotenuse=6.7\ units[/tex]

substitute

[tex]sin(x)=\frac{4.3}{6.7}[/tex]

[tex]x=sin^{-1} (\frac{4.7}{6.7})[/tex]

therefore

The second case is not the solution

Third case

[tex]adjacent\ side\ angle\ x=6.7\ units[/tex]

[tex]hypotenuse=4.3\ units[/tex]

Note The hypotenuse cannot be smaller than the adjacent leg or the opposite leg. This problem has errors

substitute

[tex]cos(x)=\frac{6.7}{4.3}[/tex]

[tex]x=cos^{-1} (\frac{6.7}{4.3})[/tex]

therefore

The third case is not the solution

the solution is the first case

We will look for the triangle that has an adjacent side of 4.3 and a hypotenuse of 6.7. From the options, triangle A matches this parameter: Option A is correct.

For us to get the correct answer, we will use the SOH CAH TOA identity to verify

O is the Opposite side

H is the hypotenuse side

A is the adjacent side

Since [tex]x = cos^{-1}\frac{4.3}{6.7}[/tex]

Cos x = 4.3/6.7

Since Cos x = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Adjacent = 4.3

Hypotenuse = 6.7

We will look for the triangle that has an adjacent side of 4.3 and a hypotenuse of 6.7. From the options, triangle A matches this parameters.
