4cos(-pi/4)

4 cos (- \frac{π}{4})

22

Decimal Notation

2.82842 \dots

Solution steps

4 cos (- \frac{π}{4})

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (- \frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

cos (- \frac{π}{4})

Use the following property:

cos (- x) = cos (x)

cos (- \frac{π}{4}) = cos (\frac{π}{4})

= cos (\frac{π}{4})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

cos (\frac{π}{4})

cos (x)

= \frac{2}{2}

= 4 \cdot \frac{2}{2}

Simplify

4 \cdot \frac{2}{2} : 22

4 \cdot \frac{2}{2}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{2 \cdot 4}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{4}{2} = 2

= 22

= 22
