Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine function, along with sine and tangent, is one of the three most common trigonometric functions. In any right triangle, the cosine of an angle is the length of the adjacent side (A) divided by the length of the hypotenuse (H). In a formula, it is written simply as 'cos'.
In any right angled triangle, for any angle:
The sine of the angle = the length of the opposite side
the length of the hypotenuse
The cosine of the angle = the length of the adjacent side
the length of the hypotenuse
The tangent of the angle = the length of the opposite side
the length of the adjacent side
So in shorthand notation:
sin = o/h cos = a/h tan = o/a

Multiply both sides by 12, so that we get rid of the fraction in x.
12 · (x+3)/12 = 2/7 · 12
Simplify.
x + 3 = 24/7
Then, subtract 3 from both sides, so that "x" gets isolated.
x = 24/7 - 3
Turn "3" into an improper fraction so that we could find the value of x easier.
3 = 21/3
So :
x = 24/7 - 21/7
Simplify.
x = 3/7
