4cos^2(A)-3=0

Solution

4 cos^{2} (A) - 3 = 0

Solution

A = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, A = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn, A = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn, A = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn

Degrees

A = 3 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, A = 33 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, A = 15 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, A = 21 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

4 cos^{2} (A) - 3 = 0

Solve by substitution

4 cos^{2} (A) - 3 = 0

Let:

cos (A) = u

4 u^{2} - 3 = 0

4 u^{2} - 3 = 0 : u = \frac{3}{2}, u = - \frac{3}{2}

4 u^{2} - 3 = 0

Move

3

to the right side

4 u^{2} - 3 = 0

Add

3

to both sides

4 u^{2} - 3 + 3 = 0 + 3

Simplify

4 u^{2} = 3

4 u^{2} = 3

Divide both sides by

4

4 u^{2} = 3

Divide both sides by

4

\frac{4 u ^{2}}{4} = \frac{3}{4}

Simplify

u^{2} = \frac{3}{4}

u^{2} = \frac{3}{4}

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

x = f (a), - f (a)

u = \frac{3}{4}, u = - \frac{3}{4}

\frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Apply radical rule:

assuming

a \geq 0, b \geq 0

= \frac{3}{4}

4 = 2

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

= \frac{3}{2}

- \frac{3}{4} = - \frac{3}{2}

- \frac{3}{4}

Simplify

\frac{3}{4} : \frac{3}{2}

Apply radical rule:

assuming

a \geq 0, b \geq 0

= \frac{3}{4}

4 = 2

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

= \frac{3}{2}

= - \frac{3}{2}

u = \frac{3}{2}, u = - \frac{3}{2}

Substitute back

u = cos (A)

cos (A) = \frac{3}{2}, cos (A) = - \frac{3}{2}

cos (A) = \frac{3}{2}, cos (A) = - \frac{3}{2}

cos (A) = \frac{3}{2} : A = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, A = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

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