tan theta=2/1
tan theta = opp/adj
by Pythagoras theorem h²=o²+a²
h²=2²+1²
h²=4+1=5
h²=5
h=√5
cos theta =adj/hyp
=>1/√5

Answer:
cos (theta) = 1/√5
Step-by-step explanation:
tan (theta) = 2
=> sin (theta)/ cos(theta) =2
=> sin(theta) =2cos(theta)
=> sin^2(theta)=4cos^2(theta)
=> 1-cos^2(theta)=4cos^2(theta)
=> 5cos^2(theta)=1
=> cos^2(theta)=1/5
=> cos(theta)=1/√5
