9sin(x)-2=4sin^2(x)

Solution

9 sin (x) - 2 = 4 sin^{2} (x)

Solution

x = 0.25268 \dots + 2 πn, x = π - 0.25268 \dots + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 14.47751 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 165.52248 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

9 sin (x) - 2 = 4 sin^{2} (x)

Solve by substitution

9 sin (x) - 2 = 4 sin^{2} (x)

Let:

sin (x) = u

9 u - 2 = 4 u^{2}

9 u - 2 = 4 u^{2} : u = 2, u = \frac{1}{4}

9 u - 2 = 4 u^{2}

Switch sides

4 u^{2} = 9 u - 2

Move

2

to the left side

4 u^{2} = 9 u - 2

Add

2

to both sides

4 u^{2} + 2 = 9 u - 2 + 2

Simplify

4 u^{2} + 2 = 9 u

4 u^{2} + 2 = 9 u

Move

9 u

to the left side

4 u^{2} + 2 = 9 u

Subtract

9 u

from both sides

4 u^{2} + 2 - 9 u = 9 u - 9 u

Simplify

4 u^{2} + 2 - 9 u = 0

4 u^{2} + 2 - 9 u = 0

Write in the standard form

a x^{2} + b x + c = 0

4 u^{2} - 9 u + 2 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

4 u^{2} - 9 u + 2 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 4, b = - 9, c = 2

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 9 ) \pm ( - 9 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 2}{2 \cdot 4}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 9 ) \pm ( - 9 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 2}{2 \cdot 4}

(- 9)^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 2 = 7

(- 9)^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 2

Apply exponent rule:

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

n

is even

(- 9)^{2} = 9^{2}

= 9^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 2

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 4 \cdot 2 = 32

= 9^{2} - 32

9^{2} = 81

= 81 - 32

Subtract the numbers:

81 - 32 = 49

= 49

Factor the number:

49 = 7^{2}

= 7^{2}

Apply radical rule:

7^{2} = 7

= 7

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 9 ) \pm 7}{2 \cdot 4}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- ( - 9 ) + 7}{2 \cdot 4}, u_{2} = \frac{- ( - 9 ) - 7}{2 \cdot 4}

u = \frac{- ( - 9 ) + 7}{2 \cdot 4} : 2

\frac{- ( - 9 ) + 7}{2 \cdot 4}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{9 + 7}{2 \cdot 4}

Add the numbers:

9 + 7 = 16

= \frac{16}{2 \cdot 4}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 4 = 8

= \frac{16}{8}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{16}{8} = 2

= 2

u = \frac{- ( - 9 ) - 7}{2 \cdot 4} : \frac{1}{4}

\frac{- ( - 9 ) - 7}{2 \cdot 4}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{9 - 7}{2 \cdot 4}

Subtract the numbers:

9 - 7 = 2

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

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 4 = 8

= \frac{2}{8}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{1}{4}

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = 2, u = \frac{1}{4}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 2, sin (x) = \frac{1}{4}

sin (x) = 2, sin (x) = \frac{1}{4}

sin (x) = 2 :

No Solution

sin (x) = \frac{1}{4} : x = arcsin (\frac{1}{4}) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (\frac{1}{4}) + 2 πn

sin (x) = \frac{1}{4}

Apply trig inverse properties

sin (x) = \frac{1}{4}

General solutions for
