Answer:
C) 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Have you heard of this way to memorize the trig ratios?
SOH-CAH-TOA (Say it out loud so you remember it.)
It represents these ratios:
Sine = opposite side / hypotenuse
Cosine = adjacent side / hypotenuse
Tangent = opposite side / adjacent side
In this problem, cos C = adj / hyp = BC / AC = 24 / 40.
That simplifies to 3/5
