solvefor x,-4sin(x)=-cos^2(x)+1

Solution

solve for

x, - 4 sin (x) = - cos^{2} (x) + 1

Solution

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

- 4 sin (x) = - cos^{2} (x) + 1

Subtract

- cos^{2} (x) + 1

from both sides

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

Rewrite using trig identities

- 1 + cos^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x)

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

1 - cos^{2} (x) = sin^{2} (x)

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

- sin^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

- sin^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x) = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

- u^{2} - 4 u = 0

- u^{2} - 4 u = 0 : u = - 4, u = 0

- u^{2} - 4 u = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

- u^{2} - 4 u = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = - 1, b = - 4, c = 0

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 4 ) \pm ( - 4 ) ^{2} - 4 ( - 1 ) \cdot 0}{2 ( - 1 )}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 4 ) \pm ( - 4 ) ^{2} - 4 ( - 1 ) \cdot 0}{2 ( - 1 )}

(- 4)^{2} - 4 (- 1) \cdot 0 = 4

(- 4)^{2} - 4 (- 1) \cdot 0

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= (- 4)^{2} + 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 0

Apply exponent rule:

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

n

is even

(- 4)^{2} = 4^{2}

= 4^{2} + 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 0

Apply rule

0 \cdot a = 0

= 4^{2} + 0

4^{2} + 0 = 4^{2}

= 4^{2}

Apply radical rule:

assuming

a \geq 0

= 4

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

Separate the solutions

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

u = \frac{- ( - 4 ) + 4}{2 ( - 1 )} : - 4

\frac{- ( - 4 ) + 4}{2 ( - 1 )}

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a, - (- a) = a

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

Add the numbers:

4 + 4 = 8

= \frac{8}{- 2 \cdot 1}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 1 = 2

= \frac{8}{- 2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{8}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{8}{2} = 4

= - 4

u = \frac{- ( - 4 ) - 4}{2 ( - 1 )} : 0

\frac{- ( - 4 ) - 4}{2 ( - 1 )}

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a, - (- a) = a

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

Subtract the numbers:

4 - 4 = 0

= \frac{0}{- 2 \cdot 1}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 1 = 2

= \frac{0}{- 2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{0}{2}

Apply rule

\frac{0}{a} = 0, a \neq = 0

= - 0

= 0

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = - 4, u = 0

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = - 4, sin (x) = 0

sin (x) = - 4, sin (x) = 0

sin (x) = - 4 :

No Solution

sin (x) = - 4

- 1 \leq sin (x) \leq 1

No Solution

sin (x) = 0 : x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

sin (x) = 0

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Solve

x = 0 + 2 πn : x = 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn

0 + 2 πn = 2 πn

x = 2 πn

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Combine all the solutions

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn
