Find the value of the trigonometric ratio, cos L.

b/h

Step-by-step explanation:

remember SOH CAH TOA. Sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cos = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan = opposite/adjacent. So in this case use CAH for cos L. Adjacent to L is b, and the hypotenuse is h. Therefore the answer is b/h.

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
