sin(x)-cos(x)=1,0<= x<= 360

Solution

sin (x) - cos (x) = 1, 0 \leq x \leq 36 0^{\circ}

Solution

x = 9 0^{\circ}, x = 18 0^{\circ}

Radians

x = \frac{π}{2}, x = π

Solution steps

sin (x) - cos (x) = 1, 0 \leq x \leq 36 0^{\circ}

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (x) - cos (x)

sin (x) - cos (x) = 2 sin (x - 4 5^{\circ})

sin (x) - cos (x)

Rewrite as

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

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{1}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{1}{2}

= 2 (cos (4 5^{\circ}) sin (x) - sin (4 5^{\circ}) cos (x))

Use the Angle Sum identity:

sin (s - t) = sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t)

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

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

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

Divide both sides by

2

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

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 sin ( x - 4 5 ^{\circ} )}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 sin ( x - 4 5 ^{\circ} )}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 sin ( x - 4 5 ^{\circ} )}{2} : sin (x - 4 5^{\circ})

\frac{2 sin ( x - 4 5 ^{\circ} )}{2}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= sin (x - 4 5^{\circ})

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 (x - 4 5^{\circ}) = \frac{2}{2}

sin (x - 4 5^{\circ}) = \frac{2}{2}

sin (x - 4 5^{\circ}) = \frac{2}{2}
