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

solve for

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

x = \frac{π}{4} + πn

Degrees

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

Solution steps

sin (x) - cos (x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (x) - cos (x) = 0

Divide both sides by

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

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

Simplify

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

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

tan (x) - 1 = 0

tan (x) - 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

tan (x) - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

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

Simplify

tan (x) = 1

tan (x) = 1

General solutions for

tan (x) = 1

100 + 60 sin (\frac{7 π}{3} x) = 100, 0 \leq x \leq 1

cot (θ) = 4, cos (θ) < 0

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

5 cos (a) + 8 = 3 cos (a) + 6
