1=2cos(2θ)

Solution

1 = 2 cos (2 θ)

Solution

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + πn

Degrees

θ = 3 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, θ = 15 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

1 = 2 cos (2 θ)

Switch sides

2 cos (2 θ) = 1

Divide both sides by

2

2 cos (2 θ) = 1

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 cos ( 2 θ )}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

2 θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn, 2 θ = \frac{5 π}{3} + 2 πn

Solve

2 θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

2 θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

= \frac{π}{3 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 2 = 6

= \frac{π}{6}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{π}{6} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

Solve

2 θ = \frac{5 π}{3} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + πn

2 θ = \frac{5 π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 θ = \frac{5 π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by
