$$\cos{\left(x \right)} = \frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{3} + 2}}{2}$$
Detail solution
Given the equation
$$\cos{\left(x \right)} = \frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{3} + 2}}{2}$$
- this is the simplest trigonometric equation
This equation is transformed to
$$x = \pi n + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{3} + 2}}{2} \right)}$$
$$x = \pi n - \pi + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{3} + 2}}{2} \right)}$$
Or
$$x = \pi n + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{3} + 2}}{2} \right)}$$
$$x = \pi n - \pi + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{\sqrt{3} + 2}}{2} \right)}$$
, where n - is a integer
