A complex cosine

Geometry Level 5

cos ( π 504 ) + cos ( π 1008 ) cos ( π 672 ) = x + 1 x \large \dfrac { \cos { \left( \dfrac { \pi }{ 504 } \right) } +\cos { \left( \dfrac { \pi }{ 1008 } \right) } }{ \cos { \left( \dfrac { \pi }{ 672 } \right) } } = x + \dfrac1x

Let x x a complex number different from zero satisfying the equation above, such that x = 1 \left| x \right| =1 . The option that correctly express the value of x 2016 { x }^{ 2016 } is...

1 1 2 1 -1 1 2 \frac { 1 }{ 2 } 1 2 -\frac { 1 }{ 2 }
