Strictly saying, this equation cos%28theta%29 = 0.3 has infinitely many different solutions 

on the number line; respectively, expression theta%2Bpi may have infinitely many different values,

and I do not think that they expect to get this infinite set of values as an answer.



I explain it to the Math composer in order for he (or she) get understanding, that such problem 
should have reasonable restrictions on the diapason of values of theta - then the problem 
will be more reasonable (will be posed more professionally).
