(1+2cos(2x))^2=0

Solution

(1 + 2 cos (2 x))^{2} = 0

Solution

x = \frac{π}{3} + πn, x = \frac{2 π}{3} + πn

Degrees

x = 6 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 12 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

(1 + 2 cos (2 x))^{2} = 0

Using the Zero Factor Principle:

ab = 0

then

a = 0

b = 0

Solve

1 + 2 cos (2 x) = 0 : cos (2 x) = - \frac{1}{2}

1 + 2 cos (2 x) = 0

Move

1

to the right side

1 + 2 cos (2 x) = 0

Subtract

1

from both sides

1 + 2 cos (2 x) - 1 = 0 - 1

Simplify

2 cos (2 x) = - 1

2 cos (2 x) = - 1

Divide both sides by

2

2 cos (2 x) = - 1

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 cos ( 2 x )}{2} = \frac{- 1}{2}

Simplify

cos (2 x) = - \frac{1}{2}

cos (2 x) = - \frac{1}{2}

The solution to the quadratic equation is:

cos (2 x) = - \frac{1}{2}

2 x = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn, 2 x = \frac{4 π}{3} + 2 πn

2 x = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn, 2 x = \frac{4 π}{3} + 2 πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn : x = \frac{π}{3} + πn

2 x = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{2 π}{3}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{2 π}{3}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{2 π}{3}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2} : \frac{π}{3} + πn

\frac{\frac{2 π}{3}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

\frac{\frac{2 π}{3}}{2} = \frac{π}{3}

\frac{\frac{2 π}{3}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a} = \frac{b}{c \cdot a}

= \frac{2 π}{3 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 2 = 6

= \frac{2 π}{6}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{π}{3}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{π}{3} + πn

x = \frac{π}{3} + πn

x = \frac{π}{3} + πn

x = \frac{π}{3} + πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{4 π}{3} + 2 πn : x = \frac{2 π}{3} + πn

2 x = \frac{4 π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{4 π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by
