    Sin θ = 2 / 7

    tan θ > 0

    cos θ = ?

    sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

    tan θ = opposite / adjacent

    cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

    short leg = opposite = 2

    hypotenuse = 7

    long leg = adjacent = ?

    adjacent = √ (7² - 2²)

    adjacent = √ (49 - 4)

    adjacent = √45

    adjacent = √9 * 5

    adjacent = 3 √5

    cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

    cos θ = 3√5 / 7
