sin(2x)=-1/(sqrt(2))

Solution

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

Solution

x = \frac{5 π}{8} + πn, x = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

Solution steps

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

Simplify

- \frac{1}{2} : - \frac{2}{2}

- \frac{1}{2}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{2}{2}

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

1 \cdot 2 = 2

22 = 2

22

Apply radical rule:

a a = a

22 = 2

= 2

= - \frac{2}{2}

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

2 x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn, 2 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

2 x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn, 2 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn : x = \frac{5 π}{8} + πn

2 x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{5 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{5 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} : x

\frac{2 x}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{5 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2} : \frac{5 π}{8} + πn

\frac{\frac{5 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

\frac{\frac{5 π}{4}}{2} = \frac{5 π}{8}

\frac{\frac{5 π}{4}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a} = \frac{b}{c \cdot a}

= \frac{5 π}{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= \frac{5 π}{8}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{5 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{5 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{5 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{5 π}{8} + πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn : x = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

2 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} : x

\frac{2 x}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2} : \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} = \frac{7 π}{8}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{b}{c}}{a} = \frac{b}{c \cdot a}

= \frac{7 π}{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= \frac{7 π}{8}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{5 π}{8} + πn, x = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn
