Question 908501: 2cos(5 theta) + square root of 3 = 0

I have tried making theta equal 5theta and then I made,
2cos theta + square root of 3 = 0 to get,
cos= -square root of 3 all over 2.
I went to the unit circle and looked at where cos = -square root of 3 all over 2 and that is 5 pie/6 and 7 pie/6.
Now I do not kknow what to do next or if I even started the answer right?
