In researching about Chebyshēv polynomials, it is said that they have various properties which makes them useful in terms of solving for polynomials and also for approximating functions.

We can define the nthn^{th} Chebyshēv polynomial of the first kind Tn(x)T_n(x) in the form

Tn(x)=cos(ncos1x)T_n(x)=\cos(n\cos^{-1}x)

or

Tn(cosθ)=cosnθT_n(\cos\theta)=\cos n\theta
