Answer:

c = 5/Cos 35

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following

m<ACB = 90degrees

m<ABC = 35degrees

The side opposite to m<ABC is AC

BA = hypotenuse

CB = adjacent = 5inches

Required

Equation to solve BA which is c

Using the Pythagoras theorem;

Cos theta = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Cos m<ABC = CB/BA

Cos m<ABC = 5/c

c = 5/cosm<ABC

c = 5/Cos 35

Hence the equation that can be used to solve for c is c = 5/Cos 35
