Find all solutions of the equation in the interval 0 2 pi co
Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2 pi). cos^2 x = 1 + sin x Write your answer in radians in terms of pi. If there is more than one solution, separate them with commas. x =
Solution
We have given equation is cos2x =1+sinx
cos2x =1+sinx
1-sin2x=1+sinx since substituting cos2x=1-sin2x
sin2x+sinx =0 since taking right side value of the equaton into left side value
sinx(sinx+1)= 0
sinx=0 and sinx=-1
x=0 degrees and x=270 degrees
Converting into radians x=[0 ,3pi/2]
Therefore
The solutions of the given equation is x=[0 ,3pi/2] in radians
