cos x - cos ² x = 0
cos x(1-cos x) = 0
cos x = 0 or 1-cos x = 0
cos x = 0 or cos x = 1
x = pi/2+pi*n or x = 2pi*n

solve for x: cos x - cos ² x = 0
--------------------
cos(x)*(1-cos(x)) = 0
cos(x) = 0
x = pi/2 + n*pi, n = 0,1,2,3.....
---------------------------
cos(x) = 1
x = 0 + 2n*pi, n = 0,1,2,3...
