Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{c\approx3.31}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use cosine:

[tex]cosine=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\cos\theta=\dfrac{b}{c}[/tex]

We have:

[tex]\theta=25^o\to\cos25^o\approx0.9063\\\\b=3[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\dfrac{3}{c}=0.9063[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3}{c}=\dfrac{9063}{10000}[/tex]          cross multiply

[tex]9063c=30000[/tex]          divide both sides by 9063

[tex]c\approx3.31[/tex]
