Aug 6, 2015 · The half angle identity for cosine can be derived (since I don't recall it off-hand): cos^2(x) = (1+cos(2x))/2 By inference: cos^2(x/2) = (1+cosx)/2 Square root to ...

Aug 10, 2018 · #cos (theta/2) = +- sqrt((1-cos theta) / 2)# Let #hat (theta/2) = 22.5^@#. #hat theta = 2 * 22.5 = 45 ^@# cos (theta/2) = cos 22.5^@ = + sqrt((1 - cos 45) / 2)#

Jul 19, 2015 · Find cos (22.5 deg) Call cos 22.5 = cos t --> cos 2t = cos 45 deg Trig table --> cos 45 = (sqrt2)/2 Use trig identity: cos 2t = sqrt2/2 = 2cos^2 t - 1 2cos^2 t = 1 + sqrt2/2 = (2 + sqrt2)/2 cos^2 t = (2 + sqrt2)/4 cos t = cos 22.5 = +- sqrt(2 + sqrt2)/2
