Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right angled triangle :

Ratio of the leg Adjacent an angle to the hypotenus can be obtained using the Cosine trigonometric ratio

For an angle of 23° and and adjacent leg of 46

Cos 23 = adjacent / hypotenus

Adjacent / hypotenus = 0.92

46 / hypotenus = 0.92

Hypotenus = 46 / 0.92

Hypotenus = 50
