Answer:

D) [tex]-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]tan\theta=-2,\:\frac{\pi}{2}<\theta<\pi\\cos(2\theta)=?[/tex]

Use identities

[tex]cos(2\theta)=\frac{1-tan^2\theta}{1+tan^2\theta}\\\\cos(2\theta)=\frac{1-(-2)^2}{1+(-2)^2}\\\\cos(2\theta)=\frac{1-4}{1+4}\\ \\cos(2\theta)=-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
