To solve the problem, we start with the function given: \[ f(x) = \cos(a_1 + x) + \frac{1}{2} \cos(a_2 + x) + \frac{1}{2^2} \cos(a_3 + x) + \ldots + \frac{1}{2^{n-1}} \cos(a_n + x) \] We need to find the absolute difference \( |x_2 - x_1| \) given that \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: ...
