-->
The angles that have a cosine value of are in the first and fourth quadrant.

is a solution in the first quadrant
That gives us:
-->
The next fist quadrant solution to the equation is
--> which is not in the interval [,)

is a fourth quadrant solution to
and so are all angles differing by a multiple of
That makes a solution to
However, --> which is not in the interval [,).

SO the only solution in the interval [,) is .
