Answer:

[tex]cos \theta = 0.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a line from point ( 0.6, 0.8 ) to the X - axis, forming a right triangle with hypotenuse = r = 1 , adjacent = 0.6,  opposite = 0.8

[tex]cos \theta = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} , \ where \ adjacent = 0.6 ,\ hypotenuse \ = r= 1[/tex]

[tex]cos \theta = \frac{0.6}{1}\\\\cos \theta = 0.6\\\\\theta = cos^{-1} \ 0.6\\\\\theta = 53.13^\circ[/tex]
