Math Problem Statement

Use a calculator to find the value of cos(19°). Round your answer to four places past the decimal point.

Solution

The question shown asks to find the value of cos(19)\cos(19^\circ) and round the answer to four decimal places.

Let me calculate it for you.

cos(19)0.9455\cos(19^\circ) \approx 0.9455

Thus, the value of cos(19)\cos(19^\circ), rounded to four decimal places, is 0.9455.

Would you like more details on how cosine works or have any further questions?

Here are some related questions for you:

  1. What is the cosine of other common angles, like 3030^\circ or 4545^\circ?
  2. How does the unit circle help in understanding trigonometric functions?
  3. How do sine and cosine values relate to right-angle triangles?
  4. What is the difference between degrees and radians in trigonometry?
  5. How do trigonometric identities like cos2θ+sin2θ=1\cos^2\theta + \sin^2\theta = 1 work?

Tip: In many calculators, make sure it's set to degrees (not radians) when computing trigonometric values in degrees!
