2sin^2(x)-sin(x)-1=0,0<= x<= 360

Solution

2 sin^{2} (x) - sin (x) - 1 = 0, 0^{\circ} \leq x \leq 36 0^{\circ}

Solution

x = 9 0^{\circ}, x = 21 0^{\circ}, x = 33 0^{\circ}

Radians

x = \frac{π}{2}, x = \frac{7 π}{6}, x = \frac{11 π}{6}

Solution steps

2 sin^{2} (x) - sin (x) - 1 = 0, 0^{\circ} \leq x \leq 36 0^{\circ}

Solve by substitution

2 sin^{2} (x) - sin (x) - 1 = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

2 u^{2} - u - 1 = 0

2 u^{2} - u - 1 = 0 : u = 1, u = - \frac{1}{2}

2 u^{2} - u - 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

2 u^{2} - u - 1 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 2, b = - 1, c = - 1

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 1 ) \pm ( - 1 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 ( - 1 )}{2 \cdot 2}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 1 ) \pm ( - 1 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 ( - 1 )}{2 \cdot 2}

(- 1)^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 (- 1) = 3

(- 1)^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 (- 1)

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= (- 1)^{2} + 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

(- 1)^{2} = 1

(- 1)^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

n

is even

(- 1)^{2} = 1^{2}

= 1^{2}

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

= 1

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 8

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 8

= 8

= 1 + 8

Add the numbers:

1 + 8 = 9

= 9

Factor the number:

9 = 3^{2}

= 3^{2}

Apply radical rule:

3^{2} = 3

= 3

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 1 ) \pm 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- ( - 1 ) + 3}{2 \cdot 2}, u_{2} = \frac{- ( - 1 ) - 3}{2 \cdot 2}

u = \frac{- ( - 1 ) + 3}{2 \cdot 2} : 1

\frac{- ( - 1 ) + 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{1 + 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Add the numbers:

1 + 3 = 4

= \frac{4}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{4}{4}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{a} = 1

= 1

u = \frac{- ( - 1 ) - 3}{2 \cdot 2} : - \frac{1}{2}

\frac{- ( - 1 ) - 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{1 - 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Subtract the numbers:

1 - 3 = - 2

= \frac{- 2}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{- 2}{4}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{2}{4}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= - \frac{1}{2}

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = 1, u = - \frac{1}{2}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = - \frac{1}{2}

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = - \frac{1}{2}

sin (x) = 1, 0 \leq x \leq 36 0^{\circ} : x = 9 0^{\circ}

sin (x) = 1, 0 \leq x \leq 36 0^{\circ}
