Help?!

\[\cos(33degrees)\]=.084 Find cos(66degrees)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cos(2x)= 2((cosx)^2) - 1 just substitute values, u'll get

I STILL dont understand!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as ksram said, it is always true that \[\cos(2\theta)=2\cos^2(\theta)-1\] you know that \[\cos(\theta)=\cos(33^0)=0.84\] and therefore we must have \[\cos(2\theta)=\cos(2\times 33)=\cos(66)=2\times \cos^2(33)-1\] \[=2\times 0.84^2-1\] whatever that is

btw i checked and it is \[\cos(33)=0.84\] rounded, not \[\cos(33)=0.084\]
