Need help.... Solve each equation in the interval from 0 to 2pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. cos(π θ) = - 0.10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can use a calc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Tell me how to do that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What numbers to use

OpenStudy (anonymous):

acos(-0.10)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is pi*theta

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you will have two solutions in ths interval

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well.. i got 1.670964...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand, somebody help

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Type into your calculator: cos^(-1)=-.10

OpenStudy (mertsj):

You should get 1.67 radians.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, I got that,

OpenStudy (mertsj):

That is 1.47 radians less than pi radians.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What how did you get 1.47

OpenStudy (mertsj):

pi radians is 3.14 radians. Subtract 1.67 from 3.14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Therefore there is another angle in Quadrant III that has the same cosine and its value is 3.14 radians + 1.47 radians.
