6sin^2(x)=5sin(x)

Solution

6 sin^{2} (x) = 5 sin (x)

Solution

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn, x = 0.98511 \dots + 2 πn, x = π - 0.98511 \dots + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 56.44269 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 123.55730 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

6 sin^{2} (x) = 5 sin (x)

Solve by substitution

6 sin^{2} (x) = 5 sin (x)

Let:

sin (x) = u

6 u^{2} = 5 u

6 u^{2} = 5 u : u = 0, u = \frac{5}{6}

6 u^{2} = 5 u

Move

5 u

to the left side

6 u^{2} = 5 u

Subtract

5 u

from both sides

6 u^{2} - 5 u = 5 u - 5 u

Simplify

6 u^{2} - 5 u = 0

6 u^{2} - 5 u = 0

Factor

6 u^{2} - 5 u : u (6 u - 5)

6 u^{2} - 5 u

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b + c} = a^{b} a^{c}

u^{2} = uu

= 6 uu - 5 u

Factor out common term

u

= u (6 u - 5)

u (6 u - 5) = 0

Using the Zero Factor Principle:

ab = 0

then

a = 0

b = 0

u = 0 or 6 u - 5 = 0

Solve

6 u - 5 = 0 : u = \frac{5}{6}

6 u - 5 = 0

Move

5

to the right side

6 u - 5 = 0

Add

5

to both sides

6 u - 5 + 5 = 0 + 5

Simplify

6 u = 5

6 u = 5

Divide both sides by

6

6 u = 5

Divide both sides by

6

\frac{6 u}{6} = \frac{5}{6}

Simplify

u = \frac{5}{6}

u = \frac{5}{6}

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = 0, u = \frac{5}{6}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 0, sin (x) = \frac{5}{6}

sin (x) = 0, sin (x) = \frac{5}{6}

sin (x) = 0 : x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

sin (x) = 0

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Solve

x = 0 + 2 πn : x = 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn

0 + 2 πn = 2 πn

x = 2 πn

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

sin (x) = \frac{5}{6} : x = arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn

sin (x) = \frac{5}{6}

Apply trig inverse properties

sin (x) = \frac{5}{6}

General solutions for

sin (x) = \frac{5}{6}

sin (x) = a \Rightarrow x = arcsin (a) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (a) + 2 πn

x = arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn

x = arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn

Combine all the solutions

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn, x = arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (\frac{5}{6}) + 2 πn
