2csc^2(x)+csc(x)-1=0

Solution

2 csc^{2} (x) + csc (x) - 1 = 0

Solution

x = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 27 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

2 csc^{2} (x) + csc (x) - 1 = 0

Solve by substitution

2 csc^{2} (x) + csc (x) - 1 = 0

Let:

csc (x) = u

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

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

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

Solve with the quadratic formula

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

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 2, b = 1, c = - 1

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

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

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

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

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{2} = 1

= 1 - 4 \cdot 2 (- 1)

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= 1 + 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 8

= 1 + 8

Add the numbers:

1 + 8 = 9

= 9

Factor the number:

9 = 3^{2}

= 3^{2}

Apply radical rule:

3^{2} = 3

= 3

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- 1 \pm 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- 1 + 3}{2 \cdot 2}, u_{2} = \frac{- 1 - 3}{2 \cdot 2}

u = \frac{- 1 + 3}{2 \cdot 2} : \frac{1}{2}

\frac{- 1 + 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Add/Subtract the numbers:

- 1 + 3 = 2

= \frac{2}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{2}{4}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{1}{2}

u = \frac{- 1 - 3}{2 \cdot 2} : - 1

\frac{- 1 - 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Subtract the numbers:

- 1 - 3 = - 4

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

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{- 4}{4}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= - \frac{4}{4}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{a} = 1

= - 1

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

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

Substitute back

u = csc (x)

csc (x) = \frac{1}{2}, csc (x) = - 1

csc (x) = \frac{1}{2}, csc (x) = - 1

csc (x) = \frac{1}{2} :

No Solution

csc (x) = \frac{1}{2}

csc (x) \leq - 1 or csc (x) \geq 1

No Solution

csc (x) = - 1 : x = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn

csc (x) = - 1
