12sin^2(θ)=3

Solution

12 sin^{2} (θ) = 3

Solution

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

Degrees

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

Solution steps

12 sin^{2} (θ) = 3

Solve by substitution

12 sin^{2} (θ) = 3

Let:

sin (θ) = u

12 u^{2} = 3

12 u^{2} = 3 : u = \frac{1}{2}, u = - \frac{1}{2}

12 u^{2} = 3

Divide both sides by

12

12 u^{2} = 3

Divide both sides by

12

\frac{12 u ^{2}}{12} = \frac{3}{12}

Simplify

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

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

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

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

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

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

\frac{1}{4}

Apply radical rule:

assuming

a \geq 0, b \geq 0

= \frac{1}{4}

4 = 2

4

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

= \frac{1}{2}

Apply rule

1 = 1

= \frac{1}{2}

- \frac{1}{4} = - \frac{1}{2}

- \frac{1}{4}

Simplify

\frac{1}{4} : \frac{1}{2}

\frac{1}{4}

Apply radical rule:

assuming

a \geq 0, b \geq 0

= \frac{1}{4}

4 = 2

4

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

= \frac{1}{2}

= - \frac{1}{2}

Apply rule

1 = 1

= - \frac{1}{2}

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

Substitute back

u = sin (θ)

sin (θ) = \frac{1}{2}, sin (θ) = - \frac{1}{2}

sin (θ) = \frac{1}{2}, sin (θ) = - \frac{1}{2}

sin (θ) = \frac{1}{2} : θ = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn

sin (θ) = \frac{1}{2}
