Answer

$$ x=20 ^{\circ} , \ 100^{\circ},\ 140^{\circ},\ 220^{\circ},\ 260^{\circ},\ 340^{\circ} $$

Work Step by Step

Given $$ \cos 3x= \frac{1 }{2}$$ From the figure, we find the intersection points between $y= \cos 3x$ and $ y=\frac{1}{2} $; we get $$ x=20 ^{\circ} , \ 100^{\circ},\ 140^{\circ},\ 220^{\circ},\ 260^{\circ},\ 340^{\circ} $$
