Trigonometric Functions -

[tex] \cos = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} [/tex]

Find the opposite side, first of all.

Pythagorean Theorem -

[tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2} [/tex]

Input the hypotenuse and opposite sides to find b^2.

[tex]49 + {b}^{2} = 64[/tex]

Minus 49 from equations to get b^2 by itself.

[tex] {b}^{2} = 15[/tex]

Square root b^2 and 15 to get b by itself.

[tex]b = \sqrt{15} [/tex]

Now we can get to the trigonometry functioms!

[tex] \frac{ \sqrt{15} }{8} [/tex]

Divide them up, then find the percentage!
