cosA = √(21/25)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know

sin²(A) + cos²(A) = 1

Next, we know that sin(A) = 2/5. Plugging that into our equation, we get

(2/5)² + cos²A = 1

4/25 + cos²A = 1

subtract 4/25 from both sides to isolate cos²A

cos²A = 1 - 4/25 = 25/25-4/25 = 21/25

square root both sides to get

cosA = √(21/25)

We do not include -√(21/25) in our possible answer for cosA because this is in quadrant 1, so cosA must be positive.
