cos^2(x/3)<= sin^2(x/3)-1/2

Solution

cos^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) \leq sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - \frac{1}{2}

Solution

π + 3 πn \leq x \leq 2 π + 3 πn

Interval Notation

[π + 3 πn, 2 π + 3 πn]

Decimal

3.14159 \dots + 3 πn \leq x \leq 6.28318 \dots + 3 πn

Solution steps

cos^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) \leq sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - \frac{1}{2}

Move

sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3})

to the left side

cos^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) \leq sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - \frac{1}{2}

Subtract

sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3})

from both sides

cos^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) \leq sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - \frac{1}{2} - sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3})

cos^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) \leq - \frac{1}{2}

cos^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) - sin^{2} (\frac{x}{3}) \leq - \frac{1}{2}

Use the following identity:

cos^{2} (x) - sin^{2} (x) = cos (2 x)

cos (2 \cdot \frac{x}{3}) \leq - \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

cos (2 \cdot \frac{x}{3}) : cos (\frac{2 x}{3})

cos (2 \cdot \frac{x}{3})

Multiply

2 \cdot \frac{x}{3} : \frac{2 x}{3}

2 \cdot \frac{x}{3}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{x \cdot 2}{3}

= cos (\frac{x \cdot 2}{3})

= cos (\frac{2 x}{3})

cos (\frac{2 x}{3}) \leq - \frac{1}{2}

For

cos (x) \leq a

, if

- 1 < a < 1

then

arccos (a) + 2 πn \leq x \leq 2 π - arccos (a) + 2 πn

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn \leq \frac{2 x}{3} \leq 2 π - arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn

a \leq u \leq b

then

a \leq u and u \leq b

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn \leq \frac{2 x}{3} and \frac{2 x}{3} \leq 2 π - arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn \leq \frac{2 x}{3} : x \geq π + 3 πn

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn \leq \frac{2 x}{3}

Switch sides

\frac{2 x}{3} \geq arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn

Simplify

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn : \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn

Use the following trivial identity:

arccos (- \frac{1}{2}) = \frac{2 π}{3}
