How can you identify whether an interval uses radians or degrees?
π\piπ indicates radians; a degree symbol indicates degrees.
Only values in [−1,1][-1,1][−1,1].
Over one full turn, cosx=cosα\cos x=\cos\alphacosx=cosα gives x=αx=\alphax=α or x=2π−α\boxed{x=2\pi-\alpha}x=2π−α.
The solutions of tanx=tanα\tan x=\tan\alphatanx=tanα repeat according to x=α+nπ\boxed{x=\alpha+n\pi}x=α+nπ, where nnn is an integer.
