Find the zeros of the function in the interval (-2 pie, 2 pie). f(x) = 3 cos x

Sagot :

Answer:

Roots are -π/2 and π/2

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]{ \bf{f(x) = 3 \cos(x) }}[/tex]

when x is -2π:

[tex]{ \sf{f( - 2\pi) = 3 \cos( - 2\pi) }} \\ { \sf{ = 3}}[/tex]

hence -2π is not a zero of the function

when x is 2π:

[tex]{ \sf{f(2\pi) = 3 \cos(2\pi) }} \\ { \sf{ = 3}}[/tex]

hence 2π is not a zero of the function

when x is π/2:

[tex]{ \sf{f( \frac{\pi}{2}) = 3 \cos( \frac{\pi}{2} ) }} \\ { \sf{ = 0}}[/tex]

Hence ±π/2 is the zero of the function.
