Solution steps

8 cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{5 π}{6}) = - \frac{3}{2}

cos (\frac{5 π}{6})

cos (x)

= - \frac{3}{2}

= 8 (- \frac{3}{2})

Simplify

8 (- \frac{3}{2}) : - 43

8 (- \frac{3}{2})

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a

= - 8 \cdot \frac{3}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

= - \frac{3 \cdot 8}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{8}{2} = 4

= - 43

= - 43
