Answer:
cosX=1/2=B/H
(2)^2=(1)^2+P^2
P^2=3
P=√3.
TanX=P/B

Answer:
If cos(x) = 1/2, what is sin(x) and tan(x)?
This problem can be solved rather simply by recalling the famous Pythagorean identity:
cos2x+sin2x≡1⟹sinx≡±1−cos2x−−−−−−−−√
We can use this to find all values of sinx given cosx :
sinx=±1−12−−−−−√=±3–√2
To find tanx , we recall that
tanx≡sinxcosx
We must use both the positive and negative values for sinx , meaning that tanx will also take on two possible values:
tanx=±3√212=±3–√
Therefore, we have found that
sinx=±3–√2, tanx=±3–√
