Find all solutions of the equation in the interval 0 2pi En
Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2pi). (En NO SOLUTION.) 8 sec^2 x 8 sec x = 16 Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2pi). (Ente NO SOLUTION.)
Solution
8sec2x -8secx =16
8(sec2x -secx) =16
(sec2x -secx) =16/8
(sec2x -secx) =2
sec2x -secx -2=0
sec2x -2secx+secx -2=0
secx(secx -2)+1(secx-2)=0
(secx-2))(secx+1)=0
secx=2=>x =2npi+(pi/3),2npi-(pi/3)
secx =-1 =>x=2npi-pi,2npi +pi
