4cos^2(x)-4sin(x)-5=0,0<= x<= 2pi

Solution

4 cos^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x) - 5 = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Solution

x = \frac{7 π}{6}, x = \frac{11 π}{6}

Degrees

x = 21 0^{\circ}, x = 33 0^{\circ}

Solution steps

4 cos^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x) - 5 = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Rewrite using trig identities

- 5 + 4 cos^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x)

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

= - 5 + 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) - 4 sin (x)

Simplify

- 5 + 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) - 4 sin (x) : - 4 sin^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x) - 1

- 5 + 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) - 4 sin (x)

Expand

4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) : 4 - 4 sin^{2} (x)

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

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 4, b = 1, c = sin^{2} (x)

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

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 1 = 4

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

= - 5 + 4 - 4 sin^{2} (x) - 4 sin (x)

Add/Subtract the numbers:

- 5 + 4 = - 1

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

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

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

Solve by substitution

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

Let:

sin (x) = u

- 1 - 4 u - 4 u^{2} = 0

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

- 1 - 4 u - 4 u^{2} = 0

Write in the standard form

a x^{2} + b x + c = 0

- 4 u^{2} - 4 u - 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

- 4 u^{2} - 4 u - 1 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

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

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

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

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

(- 4)^{2} - 4 (- 4) (- 1)

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

n

is even

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

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

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 4 \cdot 1 = 16

= 4^{2} - 16

4^{2} = 16

= 16 - 16

Subtract the numbers:

16 - 16 = 0

= 0

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

u = \frac{- ( - 4 )}{2 ( - 4 )}

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

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

Remove parentheses:

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

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

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 4 = 8

= \frac{4}{- 8}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= - \frac{4}{8}

Cancel the common factor:

4

= - \frac{1}{2}

u = - \frac{1}{2}

The solution to the quadratic equation is:

u = - \frac{1}{2}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

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

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

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{2}, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π : x = \frac{7 π}{6}, x = \frac{11 π}{6}

sin (x) = - \frac{1}{2}, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π
