x = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn, x = 0.84806 \dots + 2 πn, x = π - 0.84806 \dots + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 9 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 48.59037 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 131.40962 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

4 sin^{2} (x) - 7 sin (x) + 3 = 0

Solve by substitution

4 sin^{2} (x) - 7 sin (x) + 3 = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

4 u^{2} - 7 u + 3 = 0

4 u^{2} - 7 u + 3 = 0 : u = 1, u = \frac{3}{4}

4 u^{2} - 7 u + 3 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

4 u^{2} - 7 u + 3 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 4, b = - 7, c = 3

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 7 ) \pm ( - 7 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 7 ) \pm ( - 7 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 3}{2 \cdot 4}

(- 7)^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 = 1

(- 7)^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 3

Apply exponent rule:

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

n

is even

(- 7)^{2} = 7^{2}

= 7^{2} - 4 \cdot 4 \cdot 3

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 = 48

= 7^{2} - 48

7^{2} = 49

= 49 - 48

Subtract the numbers:

49 - 48 = 1

= 1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= 1

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 7 ) \pm 1}{2 \cdot 4}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- ( - 7 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 4}, u_{2} = \frac{- ( - 7 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 4}

u = \frac{- ( - 7 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 4} : 1

\frac{- ( - 7 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 4}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{7 + 1}{2 \cdot 4}

Add the numbers:

7 + 1 = 8

= \frac{8}{2 \cdot 4}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 4 = 8

= \frac{8}{8}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{a} = 1

= 1

u = \frac{- ( - 7 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 4} : \frac{3}{4}

\frac{- ( - 7 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 4}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{7 - 1}{2 \cdot 4}

Subtract the numbers:

7 - 1 = 6

= \frac{6}{2 \cdot 4}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 4 = 8

= \frac{6}{8}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{3}{4}

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = 1, u = \frac{3}{4}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = \frac{3}{4}

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = \frac{3}{4}

sin (x) = 1 : x = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn

sin (x) = 1
