To solve \( \cos \theta = -0.96 \), we can use the inverse cosine function. Since cosine is negative in the second and third quadrants, we will find two angles for \( \theta \) in the interval \( 0 \leq \theta < 2\pi \). Using your calculator: 1. Find \( \theta = \cos^{-1}(-0.96) \) to get the reference angle (which would be in the second quadrant) and then add \( \pi \) to find the angle in the third quadrant. Calculating gives: - Reference angle \( \theta_r \approx 2.83 \) (round to two decimal places). - Second quadrant angle: \( \theta_1 \approx \pi - 2.83 \approx 3.36 \). - Third quadrant angle: \( \theta_2 \approx \pi + 2.83 \approx 4.97 \). Thus, the solution set is \{ 3.36, 4.97 \}.
