Q. Select the answer which is equivalent to the given expression using your calculator.\newlinecos(arccos15616) \cos \left(\arccos \frac{\sqrt{156}}{16}\right) \newline1610 \frac{16}{10} \newline1016 \frac{10}{16} \newline15616 \frac{\sqrt{156}}{16} \newline15610 \frac{\sqrt{156}}{10}
  1. Apply definition of arccosine: Apply the definition of the arccosine function.\newlineThe arccos function is the inverse of the cosine function, which means that cos(arccos(x))=x\cos(\arccos(x)) = x for any xx in the domain of arccos.
  2. Substitute given expression: Substitute the given expression into the identity. cos(arccos(15616))=15616\cos(\arccos(\frac{\sqrt{156}}{16})) = \frac{\sqrt{156}}{16}
  3. Check options for match: Check the given options to match the simplified expression.\newlineThe simplified expression is (156)/(16)(\sqrt{156})/(16), which is one of the given options.
