Solution

The answer is -cos(θ).

Here's the step-by-step explanation:

  1. The cosine function, cos(θ), is a periodic function with a period of 360°. This means that cos(θ + 360°) = cos(θ) for any angle θ.

  2. However, when we add 180° instead of 360°, we move to a point on the unit circle that is directly opposite the original point. This flips the sign of the cosine function.

  3. Therefore, cos(180° + θ) = -cos(θ).
