Answer:

cosA = - [tex]\frac{7}{25}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the double angle identity

cos2A = 2cos²A - 1 , then

cosA = 2cos²([tex]\frac{A}{2}[/tex] ) - 1 , that is

cosA = 2 × ([tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] )² - 1

        = 2 × [tex]\frac{9}{25}[/tex] - 1

       = [tex]\frac{18}{25}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{25}{25}[/tex]

       = - [tex]\frac{7}{25}[/tex]
