tan(5x)*cot(x+40)=1

Solution

tan (5 x) \cdot cot (x + 4 0^{\circ}) = 1

Solution

x = \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} n}{2} + 1 0^{\circ}, x = 5 5^{\circ} + \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} n}{2}

Radians

x = \frac{π}{18} + \frac{π}{2} n, x = \frac{11 π}{36} + \frac{π}{2} n

Solution steps

tan (5 x) cot (x + 4 0^{\circ}) = 1

Subtract

1

from both sides

tan (5 x) cot (x + 4 0^{\circ}) - 1 = 0

Express with sin, cos

- 1 + cot (4 0^{\circ} + x) tan (5 x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

cot (x) = \frac{cos ( x )}{sin ( x )}

= - 1 + \frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )} tan (5 x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= - 1 + \frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )} \cdot \frac{sin ( 5 x )}{cos ( 5 x )}

Simplify

- 1 + \frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )} \cdot \frac{sin ( 5 x )}{cos ( 5 x )} : \frac{- sin ( \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} ) cos ( 5 x ) + cos ( \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} ) sin ( 5 x )}{sin ( \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} ) cos ( 5 x )}

- 1 + \frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )} \cdot \frac{sin ( 5 x )}{cos ( 5 x )}

\frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )} \cdot \frac{sin ( 5 x )}{cos ( 5 x )} = \frac{cos ( \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} ) sin ( 5 x )}{sin ( \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} ) cos ( 5 x )}

\frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x )} \cdot \frac{sin ( 5 x )}{cos ( 5 x )}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{cos ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x ) sin ( 5 x )}{sin ( 4 0 ^{\circ} + x ) cos ( 5 x )}

Join

4 0^{\circ} + x : \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}

4 0^{\circ} + x

Convert element to fraction:

x = \frac{x 9}{9}

= 4 0^{\circ} + \frac{x \cdot 9}{9}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + x \cdot 9}{9}

= \frac{cos ( x + 4 0 ^{\circ} ) sin ( 5 x )}{sin ( \frac{9 x + 36 0 ^{\circ}}{9} ) cos ( 5 x )}

Join

4 0^{\circ} + x : \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}

4 0^{\circ} + x

Convert element to fraction:

\frac{f ( x )}{g ( x )} = 0 \Rightarrow f (x) = 0

- cos (5 x) sin (\frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}) + cos (\frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}) sin (5 x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- cos (5 x) sin (\frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}) + cos (\frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}) sin (5 x)

Use the Angle Difference identity:

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

= sin (5 x - \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9})
