Page 368

2. What are two values of x between 0 and
When Cos x = ½
x = arccos ½

3. How do you find
What is the period of the Cosine function?

4. How to you find
What is the period of the Cosine function?
minus

5. Why does this work?
Look at the Cosine function, there are many times it equals ½
We limited it to 0 to

6. If we wanted all the answers to cos x = ½
The answers would be
Where n is an integer

7. Solve for x

8. Solve for x

9. Solve for x for

10. Set each factor equal to 0
Solve ( remember the period for tan is )

11. Set each factor equal to 0
Solve ( remember the period for tan is )
