Trigonometric Functions and Angles

The video tutorial explains how to solve the trigonometric equation 4cos(4x) = 2 over the interval [0, 2π). It begins by expanding the interval for 4x to [0, 8π) and uses substitution to simplify the equation. The tutorial identifies angles with a cosine value of 1/2 using reference triangles and lists all coterminal angles within the interval. It then calculates the solutions for x by multiplying the angles by 1/4. Finally, the solutions are verified graphically by showing intersections of the graphs of y = 4cos(4x) and y = 2.

• 0 to 10π

• 0 to 8π

• 0 to 6π
