4*cos2(theta) = 1

cos2(theta) = 1/4

cos(theta) = sqrt(1/4) = ±1/2

Now cos(theta) = 1/2 =>

theta = 60 + 360k

or

theta = 300 + 360k

while

Now cos(theta) = -1/2 =>

theta = 120 + 360k

or

theta = 240 + 360k

where k is an integer.

How would you solve and show work for cos2 theta if cos squared theta equals 1 and theta is in the 4th quadrant?

cos2(theta) = 1 cos2(theta) + sin2(theta) = 1 so sin2(theta) = 0 cos(2*theta) = cos2(theta) - sin2(theta) = 1 - 0 = 1


How do you solve for x and y in an angle?

If X and Y are sides of a right triangle, R is the hypoteneuse, and theta is the angle at the X-R vertex, then sin(theta) is Y / R and cosine(theta) is X / R. It follows, then, that X is R cosine(theta) and Y is R sin(theta)
