Find all solutions in 0 2 pi of the following equation 2 sin
Find all solutions in [0, 2 pi) of the following equation. 2 sin^2 theta = cos 2 theta sin x cos x = Squareroot 2/4
Solution
8. a. 2 sin2theta=cos 2 theta
2sin2theta= 1-2sin2theta
4sin2theta = 1
sin2theta=1/4
sin theta= +-1/2
theta= sin-1(+-1/2)
theta= pi/6, 5pi/6, 7pi/6, 11pi/6
b. sin x cos x= sqrt2 /4
Multiply both sides by 2
2sinx cos x=sqrt2/2
sin 2x= sqrt2/2
2x= sin-1(sqrt2 /2)
x= pi/8, 3pi/8, 9pi/8, 11pi/8
