-3sqrt(3)sin(v)+3cos(v)=3sqrt(2)

Solution

- 33 sin (v) + 3 cos (v) = 32

Solution

v = π + 1.30899 \dots + 2 πn, v = - 0.26179 \dots + 2 πn

Degrees

v = 25 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, v = - 1 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

- 33 sin (v) + 3 cos (v) = 32

Add

33 sin (v)

to both sides

3 cos (v) = 32 + 33 sin (v)

Square both sides

(3 cos (v))^{2} = (32 + 33 sin (v))^{2}

Subtract

(32 + 33 sin (v))^{2}

from both sides

9 cos^{2} (v) - 18 - 186 sin (v) - 27 sin^{2} (v) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 cos^{2} (v) - 18 sin (v) 6

Use the Pythagorean identity:

cos^{2} (x) + sin^{2} (x) = 1

cos^{2} (x) = 1 - sin^{2} (x)

= - 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 (1 - sin^{2} (v)) - 18 sin (v) 6

Simplify

- 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 (1 - sin^{2} (v)) - 18 sin (v) 6 : - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 9

- 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 (1 - sin^{2} (v)) - 18 sin (v) 6

= - 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 (1 - sin^{2} (v)) - 186 sin (v)

Expand

9 (1 - sin^{2} (v)) : 9 - 9 sin^{2} (v)

9 (1 - sin^{2} (v))

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 9, b = 1, c = sin^{2} (v)

= 9 \cdot 1 - 9 sin^{2} (v)

Multiply the numbers:

9 \cdot 1 = 9

= 9 - 9 sin^{2} (v)

= - 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 - 9 sin^{2} (v) - 18 sin (v) 6

Simplify

- 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 - 9 sin^{2} (v) - 18 sin (v) 6 : - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 9

- 18 - 27 sin^{2} (v) + 9 - 9 sin^{2} (v) - 18 sin (v) 6

Group like terms

= - 27 sin^{2} (v) - 9 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 18 + 9

Add similar elements:

- 27 sin^{2} (v) - 9 sin^{2} (v) = - 36 sin^{2} (v)

= - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 18 + 9

Add/Subtract the numbers:

- 18 + 9 = - 9

= - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 9

= - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 9

= - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 186 sin (v) - 9

- 9 - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 18 sin (v) 6 = 0

Solve by substitution

- 9 - 36 sin^{2} (v) - 18 sin (v) 6 = 0

Let:

sin (v) = u

- 9 - 36 u^{2} - 18 u 6 = 0

- 9 - 36 u^{2} - 18 u 6 = 0 : u = - \frac{6 + 2}{4}, u = - \frac{6 - 2}{4}

- 9 - 36 u^{2} - 18 u 6 = 0

Write in the standard form

a x^{2} + b x + c = 0

- 36 u^{2} - 186 u - 9 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

- 36 u^{2} - 186 u - 9 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = - 36, b = - 186, c = - 9

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 18 6 ) \pm ( - 18 6 ) ^{2} - 4 ( - 36 ) ( - 9 )}{2 ( - 36 )}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 18 6 ) \pm ( - 18 6 ) ^{2} - 4 ( - 36 ) ( - 9 )}{2 ( - 36 )}
