5+4cos(-pi/6)

5 + 4 cos (- \frac{π}{6})

5 + 23

Decimal Notation

8.46410 \dots

Solution steps

5 + 4 cos (- \frac{π}{6})

Rewrite using trig identities:

cos (- \frac{π}{6}) = \frac{3}{2}

cos (- \frac{π}{6})

Use the following property:

cos (- x) = cos (x)

cos (- \frac{π}{6}) = cos (\frac{π}{6})

= cos (\frac{π}{6})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{π}{6}) = \frac{3}{2}

cos (\frac{π}{6})

cos (x)

= \frac{3}{2}

= 5 + 4 \cdot \frac{3}{2}

Simplify

5 + 4 \cdot \frac{3}{2} : 5 + 23

5 + 4 \cdot \frac{3}{2}

4 \cdot \frac{3}{2} = 23

4 \cdot \frac{3}{2}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{3 \cdot 4}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{4}{2} = 2

= 23

= 5 + 23

= 5 + 23
