Step-by-step solution:

We are given the equation:

cos(x)=0.69\cos(x) = 0.69

Step 1: Find the reference angle

To find the reference angle, we take the inverse cosine:

x=cos1(0.69)0.809x = \cos^{-1}(0.69) \approx 0.809

This is the reference angle in the first quadrant.

Step 2: Determine the solutions

Since cosine is positive in the first and fourth quadrants, we have two solutions:

  • In the first quadrant:
    A=0.809A = 0.809

  • In the fourth quadrant:
    B=2π0.8095.474B = 2\pi - 0.809 \approx 5.474

Step 3: Write the solutions

Thus, the solutions are:

A=0.809A = \boxed{0.809} (rounded to 3 decimal places)

B=5.474B = \boxed{5.474} (rounded to 3 decimal places)
