Question 845480: If 0 less than or equal to theta less than or equal to 2pi, find the value(s) of theta that make the following statement true: cos2 theta = 1. Express your answer in radians. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If 0 <= t <= 2pi, find the value(s) of t that make the following statement true: cos^2(t) = 1. Express your answer in radians.
-----
(cos^2(t)-1) = 0
---
Factor:
(cos(t)-1)(cos(t)+1) = 0
----
cos(t) = 1 or cos(t) = -1
---
t = 0,2pi or t = pi
