The line y = 1y=1.

Explanation:

First of all, note that there is no dependence of the function on xx. Thus it is a constant function. We need to find the value of the function.

We know that the period of coscos is 2pi2π. Thus we write:
cos(8pi) = cos(0 + 4 . 2pi) = cos(0) = 1 cos(8π)=cos(0+4.2π)=cos(0)=1

Thus the graph of the function is y = 1y=1, a line parallel to the x-axis having y-intercept of 1.
