To find the principal value of \( \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right) \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the function The function \( \cos^{-1}(x) \) is the inverse cosine function, which gives us the angle whose cosine is \( x \). The principal value of \( \cos^{-1}(x) \) is defined in the range \( [0, \pi] \). ### Step 2: Set up the equation We need to find \( \theta \) such that: \[ ...
