fill in the blank. express your answer as a simplified ratio or whole number. use the \/\ key for a ratio.
$cos(h)=$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall cosine definition

For angle $H$, $\cos(H) = \frac{\text{adjacent side}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

Step2: Identify sides for angle $H$

Adjacent to $H$: $JH = 70$, Hypotenuse: $IH = 74$

Step3: Substitute and simplify ratio

$\cos(H) = \frac{70}{74} = \frac{35}{37}$

Answer:

$\frac{35}{37}$
