1) 2cos(x)sin(x) + sin(x) = 0
Your first step is to factor out sin(x).
sin(x) [2cos(x) + 1] = 0
As with any equation equal to 0 with factors, equate each factor to 0 to obtain the solutions.
sin(x) = 0, which occurs at the points x = {0, pi}
2cos(x) + 1 = 0 implies
2cos(x) = -1, or
cos(x) = -1/2, which occurs at the points x = {2pi/3, 4pi/3}
Therefore, x = {0, pi, 2pi/3, 4pi/3}
2) sec^2(x) + tan(x) = 1
Your first step is to use the identity sec^2(x) = tan^2(x) + 1
tan^2(x) + 1 + tan(x) = 1
Now, subtract 1 both sides.
tan^2(x) + tan(x) = 0
Factor tan(x).
tan(x) [tan(x) + 1] = 0
tan(x) = 0, and this occurs at the points x = {0, pi}
tan(x) + 1 = 0 implies
tan(x) = -1, which occurs at the points x = {3pi/4, 7pi/4}
Therefore, our combined solutions are
x = {0, pi, 3pi/4, 7pi/4}
3) cos(x) + 1 = sin^2(x)
First, use the identity sin^2(x) = 1 - cos^2(x)
cos(x) + 1 = 1 - cos^2(x)
Subtract 1 both sides,
cos(x) = -cos^2(x)
Move -cos^2(x) to the left hand side.
cos^2(x) + cos(x) = 0
Factor.
cos(x) [cos(x) + 1] = 0, so
cos(x) = 0 (which implies x = {pi/2, 3pi/2}
cos(x) + 1 = 0,
cos(x) = -1, (which implies x = pi), so
x = {pi/2, 3pi/2, pi}

a million) cos²x - sin²x + sinx = 0 (a million - sin²x) - sin²x + sinx = 0 - 2sin²x + sinx + a million = 0 enable u = sinx -2u² + u + a million = 0 2u² - u - a million = 0 (2u + a million)(u - a million) = 0 u = -a million/2, a million sinx = -a million/2 and sinx = a million sparkling up for x employing arcsin. 2) The sin function is comparable to a million/2 while the argument is comparable to 30 levels, or pi/6 radians, and a hundred and fifty levels, or 5pi/6 radians: sin(2x - pi/3) = a million/2 2x - pi/3 = pi/6 2x = pi/6 + pi/3 2x = pi/6 + 2pi/6 2x = 3pi/6 2x = pi/2 x = pi/4 and sin(2x - pi/3) = a million/2 2x - pi/3 = 5pi/6 2x = 5pi/6 + pi/3 2x = 7pi/6 x = 7pi/12 strategies, x = pi/4 + 2npi, the place n is an integer and x = 7pi/12 + 2npi, the place n is an integer.
