For each of the following, find all solutions. The variable n denotes a generic integer.
1)2 cos(x) + 1 = 0
cos(x) = -1/2
x = (2/3)pi ; x = (4/3)pi
---------------------------------
2)(cos(x) - 1)(sin(x) + 1) = 0

---------------------
3)sec^2(x) - 4 = 0
(sec-2)(sec+2) = 0
sec(x) = 2 or sec(x) = -2
-----
x = pi/3 or (5/6)pi or x = (2/3)pi or (4/3)pi
