If x = sin^(-1)(1/2), what is the value of cos(x)?
Correct Answer: √3/2
  • Step 1: Understand that sin^(-1)(1/2) means we are looking for an angle x whose sine value is 1/2.
  • Step 2: Recall that the angle x = π/6 (or 30 degrees) has a sine value of 1/2.
  • Step 3: Now that we know x = π/6, we need to find cos(x).
  • Step 4: Use the cosine value for the angle π/6, which is √3/2.
  • Step 5: Therefore, cos(x) = √3/2.
