Solution
\[f\left( x \right) = \cos x - 2 \lambda x\]
\[f'\left( x \right) = - \sin x - 2 \lambda \]
\[\text { For f(x) to be decreasing, we must have }\]
\[f'\left( x \right) < 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow - \sin x - 2 \lambda < 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow sin x + 2 \lambda > 0 \]
\[ \Rightarrow 2 \lambda > - \sin x\]
\[\text { We know that the maximum value of -sin x is 1 }.\]
\[ \Rightarrow 2 \lambda > 1\]
\[ \Rightarrow \lambda > \frac{1}{2}\]
