Question 1.
The degree measure of \(\frac{\pi}{8}\) is:
(a) 20°60′
(b) 22°30′
(c) 22°60′
(d) 20°30′
Answer:

= cos 120°
= cos(180° – 60°)
= -cos 60°
= \(\frac{-1}{2}\)

(d) \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)
Answer:
(b) \(-\frac{1}{2}\)
Hint:
4 cos3 40° – 3 cos 40°
= cos (3 × 40°) [∵ cos 3A = 4 cos3 A – 3 cos A]
= cos 120°
= cos (180° – 60°)
= -cos 60°
= \(-\frac{1}{2}\)

= cos(3 × 30°)
= cos 90°
= 0
