Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the value of cos(90°)?
Correct Answer: 0
  • Step 1: Understand that 'cos' refers to the cosine function, which is a trigonometric function.
  • Step 2: Know that angles can be measured in degrees, and 90° is a specific angle.
  • Step 3: Recall the unit circle, which helps us understand the values of trigonometric functions at different angles.
  • Step 4: Locate 90° on the unit circle. It is at the top of the circle, where the coordinates are (0, 1).
  • Step 5: The cosine of an angle is the x-coordinate of the point on the unit circle at that angle.
  • Step 6: Since the x-coordinate at 90° is 0, we find that cos(90°) = 0.
