(cos(60))^2

Solution

(cos (6 0^{\circ}))^{2}

Solution

\frac{1}{4}

+1

Decimal Notation

0.25

Solution steps

(cos (6 0^{\circ}))^{2}

= cos^{2} (6 0^{\circ})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (6 0^{\circ}) = \frac{1}{2}

cos (6 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}

= (\frac{1}{2})^{2}

Simplify

(\frac{1}{2})^{2} : \frac{1}{4}

(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{1 ^{2}}{2 ^{2}}

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{2} = 1

= \frac{1}{2 ^{2}}

2^{2} = 4

= \frac{1}{4}

= \frac{1}{4}
