Pretty please, with sugar on it?  Where's the sugar?

Problem #7:

Recall:  cosine of an angle = adjacent side    over    hypotenuse.

Here we have cos 38 = x/21.  Mult. both sides by 21, we get x = 21cos38.  Unless your teacher demands that y ou evaluate cos 38, I'd suggest you leave your answer as is:  x = 21cos 38.
