Please
i) Find all solutions (in radians) in the range 2 < < 2 such that sin(2) = 0.3
ii) Find all solutions (in degrees) in the range 360 < < 360 such that cos(4) = cos()
Solution
I )
given sin(2) = 0.3
then sin(2) = -3/10
2 = sin^-1 ( -3/10 )
= 1/2 sin^-1 ( -3/10 )
==> - 1/2 sin^-1 ( 3/10 )
==> 0.30469/2 ==> 0.152345 radians
ii)
cos(4) = cos()
cos(4) - cos() = 0
we know cos ( s ) - cos ( t ) = - 2 sin ( s + t / 2 ) sin ( s - t /2)
therefore
-2sin ( 4 + /2 ) sin ( 4 - /2 ) = 0
2 sin ( 5 /2 ) sin( 3/2 ) = 0
sin ( 5 /2 ) sin( 3/2 ) = 0
sin ( 5 /2 ) =0; sin( 3/2 ) =0
( 5 /2 ) = 2 n ,where n=0,12.... 3/2 =2 n
=4 n / 5 , ( 2 + 4 n )/ 5 =4 n / 3 = ( 2 + 4 n )/ 3
