The angles \( \theta \) where \( \cos \theta = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) between \( 0^{\circ} \) and \( 360^{\circ} \) are \( 30^{\circ} \) and \( 330^{\circ} \).
Solución
To solve the problem, we need to find all angles \( \theta \) in the range \( 0 \leq \theta \leq 360^{\circ} \) for which \( \cos \theta = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \).
### Step 1: Identify the reference angle
The cosine function is positive in the first and fourth quadrants. The reference angle \( \theta_r \) for which \( \cos \theta = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) is:
\[
\theta_r = 30^{\circ}
\]
### Step 2: Find all angles in the specified range
1. **First Quadrant**: The angle is simply the reference angle:
\[
\theta_1 = 30^{\circ}
\]
2. **Fourth Quadrant**: The angle can be found by subtracting the reference angle from \( 360^{\circ} \):
\[
\theta_2 = 360^{\circ} - 30^{\circ} = 330^{\circ}
\]
### Step 3: List all solutions
Thus, the solutions for \( \theta \) in the range \( 0 \leq \theta \leq 360^{\circ} \) are:
\[
\theta = 30^{\circ}, 330^{\circ}
\]
### Step 4: Draw a diagram
To support the answer, we can visualize the unit circle where the angles are located:
- The angle \( 30^{\circ} \) is in the first quadrant.
- The angle \( 330^{\circ} \) is in the fourth quadrant.
Now, I will create a diagram to illustrate this.
### Diagram
The unit circle will show the angles \( 30^{\circ} \) and \( 330^{\circ} \) with their corresponding cosine values.
Let's proceed to create the diagram.
(Note: As a text-based AI, I cannot draw diagrams directly, but I can describe how to draw it.)
1. Draw a circle with a radius of 1.
2. Mark the angle \( 30^{\circ} \) from the positive x-axis, which will be in the first quadrant.
3. Mark the angle \( 330^{\circ} \) from the positive x-axis, which will be in the fourth quadrant.
4. Draw the horizontal line from the center to the right (positive x-axis) and the vertical line from the center to the top (positive y-axis).
5. Label the points where the angles intersect the circle.
### Conclusion
The values of \( \theta \) where \( \cos \theta = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) in the range \( 0 \leq \theta \leq 360^{\circ} \) are \( 30^{\circ} \) and \( 330^{\circ} \).
