cosine(x) = -1

x = (270 + 360N) degrees

or

x = (1.5 + 2N) pi radians

N is any integer, positive or negative.

Does cos x equal cos negative x?

Yes. Cosine is adjacent side over hypothenuse. Adjacent side is the same sign when x is positive or negative.


Why does cos negative theta equal cos postitive theta?

The cosine is simply the x-coordinate of the unitary circle. It helps to draw the circle, and the sine and cosine (x and y coordinates), to visualize this. The y-coordinate is the same for a positive angle and for the corresponding negative angle.


Why does cosine x equal cosine negative x?

This is going to require some visualization. Cosine is defined as the x-value on the unit circle. If you picture where a point would be, for example, at the angle of pi/6 (30°) you get a coordinate of (√(3)/2 , 1/2) so cosine is √(3)/2 and sine is 1/2 To find a negative angle you take the reflection across the x-axis. Since this does not chance the x-value, only the y, cosine does not change. The coordinates of -(pi/6) (-30°) are (√(3)/2 , -1/2). cos(-x) = cos(x) sin(-x) = - sin(x)■


Does tangent of x equal cosine divided by sine?

No, it does not.

What is the derivitive of a sine wave?

Which quadrant is sine positive and cosine negative?

Sine is positive and cosine is negative in the second quadrant of the Cartesian coordinate system. In this quadrant, the angle is between 90 and 180 degrees, where the y-coordinate (sine) is positive and the x-coordinate (cosine) is negative. Thus, for any angle in the second quadrant, sine values are above the x-axis, while cosine values are below it.


Can you make cosine squared X divided by2 equal to cosine squared x with some constant?

You could just pull out the half: it will be (1/2) cos squared x.

How do you differentiate a cosine function That is what is the derivative of the cosine of x with respect to the independent variable x?

The derivative of cosine of x is simply the negative sine of x. In mathematical terms f'(x) = d/dx[cos(x)] = -sin(x)
