Solution:
As we know reference angle is smallest angle between terminal side and X axis.
As cosine 45 ° is always positive in first and fourth quadrant.
i.e CosФ, Cos (-Ф) or Cos(2π - Ф) have same value.
As, Cos 45°, Cos (-45°) or Cos ( 360° - 45°)= Cos 315°are same.
So, Angles that share the same Cosine value as Cos 45° have same terminal sides will be in Quadrant IV having value Either Cos (-45°) or Cos (315°).
Also, Cos 45° = Sin 45° or Sin 135° i.e terminal side in first Quadrant or second Quadrant.
