cos (\frac{19 π}{2})

0

Solution steps

cos (\frac{19 π}{2})

Rewrite using trig identities:

1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{3 π}{4})

cos (\frac{19 π}{2})

Write

cos (\frac{19 π}{2})

cos (2 \cdot \frac{19 π}{4})

= cos (2 \cdot \frac{19 π}{4})

Use the Double Angle identity:

cos (2 x) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (x)

= 1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{19 π}{4})

sin (\frac{19 π}{4}) = sin (\frac{3 π}{4})

sin (\frac{19 π}{4})

Rewrite

\frac{19 π}{4}

2 π \cdot 2 + \frac{3 π}{4}

= sin (2 π 2 + \frac{3 π}{4})

Apply the periodicity of

sin

sin (x + 2 π \cdot k) = sin (x)

sin (2 π \cdot 2 + \frac{3 π}{4}) = sin (\frac{3 π}{4})

= sin (\frac{3 π}{4})

= 1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{3 π}{4})

= 1 - 2 sin^{2} (\frac{3 π}{4})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{3 π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

sin (\frac{3 π}{4})

sin (x)

= \frac{2}{2}

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

Simplify

1 - 2 (\frac{2}{2})^{2} : 0

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

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

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

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

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

(2)^{2} : 2

Apply radical rule:

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

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 = 1

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= 1

= 2

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

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{1}{2}

= 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= 1

= 1 - 1

Subtract the numbers:

1 - 1 = 0

= 0
