Answer:

PQ = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

cos60° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], then

cos60° = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{RQ}{PQ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{PQ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

PQ = 8 × 2 = 16
