x=−2.23559…∘+32.72727…∘n,x=8.19718…∘−120∘n
Solution steps
cos(7x)=sin(4x+2)
Rewrite using trig identities
cos(7x)=sin(4x+2)
Use the following identity: cos(x)=sin(2π​−x)cos(7x)=sin(2π​−7x)
cos(7x)=sin(2π​−7x)
Apply trig inverse properties
cos(7x)=sin(2π​−7x)
sin(x)=sin(y)⇒x=y+2πn,x=π−y+2πn4x+2=2π​−7x+2πn,4x+2=π−(2π​−7x)+2πn
