Q. Find all angles, 0θ<360 0^{\circ} \leq \theta<360^{\circ} , that satisfy the equation below, to the nearest tenth of a degree.\newline4cos2θ9=0 4 \cos ^{2} \theta-9=0 \newlineAnswer: θ= \theta=
  1. Solve for cos2(θ)\cos^2(\theta): Solve the equation for cos2(θ)\cos^2(\theta).
    4cos2(θ)9=04\cos^2(\theta) - 9 = 0
    Add 99 to both sides of the equation.
    4cos2(θ)=94\cos^2(\theta) = 9
    Divide both sides by 44.
    cos2(θ)=94\cos^2(\theta) = \frac{9}{4}
    Take the square root of both sides.
    cos(θ)=±94\cos(\theta) = \pm\sqrt{\frac{9}{4}}
    cos(θ)=±32\cos(\theta) = \pm\frac{3}{2}
