It is a trigonometric function which converts the angle into a ratio.

If the angle A is measured in radians, then

cos(A) = 1 - A^2/2! + A^4/4! - a^6/6! + ...

What is cos of a negative angle?

The cosine function is an even function which means that cos(-x) = cos(x). So, if cos of an angle is positive, then the cos of the negative of that angle is positive and if cos of an angle is negative, then the cos of the negative of that angle is negaitive.

What is cos2 A?

Cos(2A) = Cos(A + A) Double Angle Indentity Cos(A+A) = Cos(A)Cos(A) - Sin(A)Sin(A) => Cos^(2)[A] - SIn^(2)[A] => Cos^(2)[A] - (1 - Cos^(2)[A] => 2Cos^(2)[A] - 1


What is this expression as the cosine of an angle cos30cos55 plus sin30sin55?

cos(30)cos(55)+sin(30)sin(55)=cos(30-55) = cos(-25)=cos(25) Note: cos(a)=cos(-a) for any angle 'a'. cos(a)cos(b)+sin(a)sin(b)=cos(a-b) for any 'a' and 'b'.


What is cos of angle a with a hypotenuse of 13 and adjacent of 5 and a opposite of 12?

Cos(angle) = adjacent / hypotenuse. Cos(a) = a/h Substitute Cos(X) = 5/13 = 0.384615... A = Cos^*-1( 0.384615 .... A = 67.38013505... degrees.
