How do you solve #(cos x - 1)(cos x - 4) = 0# over the interval 0 to 2pi? Trigonometry Right Triangles Trigonometric Functions of Any Angle 1 Answer Konstantinos Michailidis Feb 5, 2016 Hence #abs(cosx)<=1# we have that #cosx-1=0=>cosx=1# so we have that #x=0# or #x=2pi# Answer link Related questions How do you find the trigonometric functions of any angle?
