cos(-(3pi)/4)

cos (- \frac{3 π}{4})

- \frac{2}{2}

Decimal Notation

- 0.70710 \dots

Solution steps

cos (- \frac{3 π}{4})

Use the following property:

cos (- x) = cos (x)

cos (- \frac{3 π}{4}) = cos (\frac{3 π}{4})

= cos (\frac{3 π}{4})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{3 π}{4}) = - \frac{2}{2}

cos (\frac{3 π}{4})

cos (x)
