Step 2.1
Subtract 0.39479111 from both sides of the equation.
arccos(x)=π4-0.39479111
Step 2.2
Subtract 0.39479111 from π4.
arccos(x)=0.39060704
arccos(x)=0.39060704
Step 3
Take the inverse arccosine of both sides of the equation to extract x from inside the arccosine.
x=cos(0.39060704)
Step 4
The result can be shown in multiple forms.
Exact Form:
x=cos(0.39060704)
