Answer:

correct answer is second option (The solution of 2cos x + 1 = 0 is x=120^o)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given

2cos x + 1 = 0

2 cos x = -1

therefore,

cos x = -\frac{1}{2}

x =cos^{-1}( -\frac{1}{2})

therefore,

x=120^o

because cos(120)=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore,

The solution of 2cos x + 1 = 0 is x=120^o

Rewrite   <span>2cos x + 1 = 0    as:

2 cos x = -1, and then cos x = -1/2

x must be in Quadrant II or Quadrant III, since the adj. side is negative.

Note that the angle 120 has adj. side -1 and hyp 2.  So 120 degrees is one solution.  

Now what about a possible 2nd solution, to be found in Quadrant III?  That would be -120 degrees, which has the same terminal line as does 240 degrees.

No soap.

So, the solution is 120 degrees.</span>
