The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will find the values of \( \sin C \) and \( \cos C \) in triangle \( \Delta ABC \) which is right-angled at \( B \). The sides are given as \( AB = 24 \, \text{cm} \) and \( BC = 7 \, \text{cm} \). ### Step 1: Identify the sides of the triangle In triangle \( ABC \): - \( AB \) is the opposite side to angle \( C \). - \( BC \) is the adjacent side to angle \( C \). - \( AC \) is the hypotenuse. ### Step 2: Use the Pythagorean theorem to find \( AC \) According to the Pythagorean theorem: \[ AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2 \] Substituting the values: \[ AC^2 = 24^2 + 7^2 \] Calculating the squares: \[ AC^2 = 576 + 49 \] \[ AC^2 = 625 \] Taking the square root: \[ AC = \sqrt{625} = 25 \, \text{cm} \] ### Step 3: Calculate \( \sin C \) The sine of angle \( C \) is defined as: \[ \sin C = \frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{AB}{AC} \] Substituting the values: \[ \sin C = \frac{24}{25} \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( \cos C \) The cosine of angle \( C \) is defined as: \[ \cos C = \frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{BC}{AC} \] Substituting the values: \[ \cos C = \frac{7}{25} \] ### Final Answers: \[ \sin C = \frac{24}{25}, \quad \cos C = \frac{7}{25} \] ---
