Question on: JAMB Mathematics - 2012

If angle (\theta) is 135o, evaluate cos(\theta)

A
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
B
\(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\)
C
\(-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\)
D
\(-\frac{1}{2}\)
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B

(\theta) = 135o

Cos 135o = Cos(90 + 45)o

= cos90ocos45o - sin90osin45o

= 0cos45o - (1 x (\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}))

= (-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2})
