Correct Answer: 0°
Solution : Given, $\cos ^2 \theta-2+\cos \theta=0$ ⇒ $\cos ^2 \theta+2\cos \theta-\cos\theta-2=0$ ⇒ $\cos \theta(\cos \theta+2)-1(\cos \theta+2)=0$ ⇒ $(\cos \theta+2)(cos \theta-1)=0$ ⇒ $\cos \theta=-2$ or $\cos \theta=1$ Since the range of $\cos\theta$ is –1 < $\cos \theta$ < 1 Hence, $\cos\theta$ cannot be –2. So, $\cos \theta=1⇒\theta= 0°$ Hence, the correct answer is 0°.
