Steps
Step 1 :The problem is asking for the inverse cosine of the cosine of . The inverse cosine function, or arccosine, is the function that takes a number in the range of -1 to 1 (the range of the cosine function) and returns the angle in radians whose cosine is that number. The range of the arccosine function is .
Step 2 :The cosine function is periodic with period , so is the same as , , and so on.
Step 3 :However, since the range of the arccosine function is , we need to find a value equivalent to that falls within this range. We can do this by subtracting multiples of from until we get a value within the range of the arccosine function.
Step 4 :The value of after subtracting multiples of until it falls within the range is approximately 2.69. This is the value that the arccosine function will return when given as input.
Step 5 :Final Answer: (approximately)
