Hi guys,
How do you solve this:
cos2x = 2x/3
Thanks!

You would draw a graph, and see where they intersect

That will clearly be helpful

So is there no way to do it algebraically?
Cos Im not that great solving it graphically

i can only think of approximating the solution through halving-the-interval method or newton's method

There is no way to solve that.

Best you can do is approximate a solution via graphical means (remember to use radians!)

Alrightie thanks guys!
