On the unit circle, at 30 degrees the point is ( sqrt(3)/2 , 1/2 )
Cosine "represents" the x value (x, y)
Therefore:
cos(30) = sqrt(3) / 2
It is highly advisable for you to memorize the unit circle -- at least the quadrant I angles (0, 30, 45, 60, and 90). I'll include a link to a good unit circle reference in the related links.
