Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2pi).cos0 = 0.4926If there is more than one solution, separate them with commas.Do not round any intermediate computations. Give your answer(s) in radians, and round your answer(s) to the nearest hundredth.

The solution is:


\theta=1.0557

Since the angle is in radians, there is only one solution

Then take the inverse of the cosine in both sides:


\begin{gathered} \cos ^(-1)(\cos (\theta))=\cos ^(-1)(0.4926)^{} \\ \theta=\cos ^(-1)(0.4926)=1.0557 \end{gathered}
