$$- \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$
Detail solution
Given the equation
$$- \cos{\left(x \right)} = - \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$
- this is the simplest trigonometric equation
Divide both parts of the equation by -1

The equation is transformed to
$$\cos{\left(x \right)} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$
This equation is transformed to
$$x = \pi n + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}$$
$$x = \pi n - \pi + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)}$$
Or
$$x = \pi n + \frac{\pi}{6}$$
$$x = \pi n - \frac{5 \pi}{6}$$
, where n - is a integer
