(A) Given in $	riangle ABC$: $a=6$,$b=5$,$c=4$. Using the Law of Cosines: $\cos A = \frac{b^2 + c^2 - a^2}{2bc}$. Substituting the values: $\cos A = \frac{5^2 + 4^2 - 6^2}{2 	imes 5 	imes 4} = \frac{25 + 16 - 36}{40} = \frac{5}{40} = \frac{1}{8}$. Now,using the formula $\cos 2A = 2\cos^2 A - 1$: $\cos 2A = 2 \left(\frac{1}{8}ight)^2 - 1 = 2 \left(\frac{1}{64}ight) - 1 = \frac{1}{32} - 1 = \frac{1 - 32}{32} = -\frac{31}{32}$.
