what is the y-value of cos(x) if x=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this a long winded way of asking what \(\cos(0)\) is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey i asked you to think about a graph..and also gave you a hint..no point repeating it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just think about the values of x where the graph of cos(x) intersects the y axis..i will give you one. 90deg is one of the many

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol how can you graph if you don't know what \(\cos(0)\) is??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the angle 0 on the last page of the attached cheat sheet then look at the ordered pairs on the unit circle the first coordinate is cosine, the second coordinate is sine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey satellite its easier to think..i personally find it easier coz i divide the graph in muliple fragments each 90deg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but for that you ought to have an idea of cos sketch

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is easier to think if you know what you are doing for sure, but there is no way to graph cosine without knowing its values to begin with first you know the values, then you can graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well the values can only be 0,1,-1 so its not too difficult to remember for sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey trevor it certainly isnt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just put that in calculator and find it out..you should get +1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

gotcha
