Problema Solution

If an angle lies in the quadrant IV what can be the value of cos of that angle

Answer provided by our tutors

let x = the angle


the angle lies in the quadrant IV means


270 <= x <= 360


since the function cos is ascending in the interval [270, 360]


cos 270 <= cos x <= cos 360


cos 270 = 0


cos 360 = 1


thus we have


0 <= cos x <= 1
