Answer:
22.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
⇒ cos²A - sinAcosA - 1/2 = 0
⇒ 2cos²A - 2sinAcosA - 1 = 0
⇒ 2cos²A - 1 = 2sinAcosA
Using: 2cos²A - 1 = cos2A
2sinAcosA = sin2A
⇒ cos2A = sin2A
⇒ 1 = tan2A or tan(2A + π)
⇒ tan45° = tan2A or tan(2A + π)
⇒ 45° = 2A or 45° = 2A + π
⇒ 22.5° = A or 2A = 45 - π = 135°
A = 22.5° or - 67.5°
