Find the solutions of the equation that are in the interval
Find the solutions of the equation that are in the interval [0, 2?). (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.)
a.)
b.)
cot2 ? ? sqrt3 / 3 cot ? = 0
Solution
a) cos(2x - pi/15) = 0 ========> 2x - pi/15 = pi/2, 3pi/2
So, 2x - pi/15 = pi/2 =======> x = 17*pi/60
and 2x - pi/15 = 3pi/2 =======> x = 47*pi/60
b) cot2 sqrt3 /3cot = 0
cot2 = sqrt3 /3cot
3cot3 = sqrt3
cot3 = 0.577
cot = 0.833
tan = 1.2
= 50.2, 230.2 degrees = 0.876, 4.02 radians
