cos((29pi)/6)

cos (\frac{29 π}{6})

- \frac{3}{2}

Decimal Notation

- 0.86602 \dots

Solution steps

cos (\frac{29 π}{6})

cos (\frac{29 π}{6}) = cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

cos (\frac{29 π}{6})

Rewrite

\frac{29 π}{6}

2 π \cdot 2 + \frac{5 π}{6}

= cos (2 π 2 + \frac{5 π}{6})

Apply the periodicity of

cos

cos (x + 2 π \cdot k) = cos (x)

cos (2 π \cdot 2 + \frac{5 π}{6}) = cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

= cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

= cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{5 π}{6}) = - \frac{3}{2}

cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

cos (x)
