cos(x+pi)-sin(x-pi)=0

Solution

cos (x + π) - sin (x - π) = 0

Solution

x = \frac{π}{4} + πn

Degrees

x = 4 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

cos (x + π) - sin (x - π) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

cos (x + π) - sin (x - π) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (x - π)

Use the Angle Difference identity:

sin (s - t) = sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (x) cos (π) - cos (x) sin (π)

Simplify

sin (x) cos (π) - cos (x) sin (π) : - sin (x)

sin (x) cos (π) - cos (x) sin (π)

sin (x) cos (π) = - sin (x)

- cos (x) - 0 = - cos (x)

= - cos (x)

- cos (x) - (- sin (x)) = 0

Simplify

- cos (x) - (- sin (x)) : - cos (x) + sin (x)

- cos (x) - (- sin (x))

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= - cos (x) + sin (x)

- cos (x) + sin (x) = 0

Divide both sides by

cos (x), cos (x) \neq = 0

\frac{- cos ( x ) + sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = \frac{0}{cos ( x )}

Simplify

- 1 + \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = 0

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

\frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = tan (x)

- 1 + tan (x) = 0

- 1 + tan (x) = 0

Move

1

to the right side

- 1 + tan (x) = 0

Add

1

to both sides

- 1 + tan (x) + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

tan (x) = 1

tan (x) = 1
