8cos(120)

Solution

8 cos (12 0^{\circ})

Solution

- 4

Solution steps

8 cos (12 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (12 0^{\circ}) = - \frac{1}{2}

cos (12 0^{\circ})

cos (x)

periodicity table with

36 0^{\circ} n

cycle:

x 0 3 0^{\circ} 4 5^{\circ} 6 0^{\circ} 9 0^{\circ} 12 0^{\circ} 13 5^{\circ} 15 0^{\circ} cos (x) 1 \frac{3}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{1}{2} 0 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{3}{2} x 18 0^{\circ} 21 0^{\circ} 22 5^{\circ} 24 0^{\circ} 27 0^{\circ} 30 0^{\circ} 31 5^{\circ} 33 0^{\circ} cos (x) - 1 - \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} - \frac{1}{2} 0 \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{3}{2}

= - \frac{1}{2}

= 8 (- \frac{1}{2})

Simplify

8 (- \frac{1}{2}) : - 4

8 (- \frac{1}{2})

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a

= - 8 \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

= - \frac{1 \cdot 8}{2}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 8 = 8

= - \frac{8}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{8}{2} = 4

= - 4

= - 4
