cos() cos () = 1
either cos() = 1

Now for (1) to hold, from
cos() = 1 = 2m

cos () = 1 = 2k
which is only possible when = 0
Equation (2) is not possible for any as for cos() = 1, should be odd multiple of irrational
and for cos() = 1 should be odd integer rational
both the conditions can not be satisfied

= 0 is the only solution.
