Find the Reference Angle cos(75)

Problem

cos(75)

Solution

1. Identify the given angle, which is 75

2. Determine the quadrant in which the angle lies. Since 0<75<90 the angle is in the first quadrant.

3. Apply the rule for reference angles in the first quadrant. For an angle θ in Quadrant I, the reference angle θ′ is equal to the angle itself.

4. Calculate the reference angle using the formula θ′=θ

5. Conclude that the reference angle for 75 is 75

Final Answer

θ′=75
