tan(2x+10)=cot(x-40)

Solution

tan (2 x + 1 0^{\circ}) = cot (x - 4 0^{\circ})

Solution

x = 4 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

Radians

x = \frac{2 π}{9} + \frac{2 π}{3} n

Solution steps

tan (2 x + 1 0^{\circ}) = cot (x - 4 0^{\circ})

Subtract

cot (x - 4 0^{\circ})

from both sides

tan (2 x + 1 0^{\circ}) - cot (x - 4 0^{\circ}) = 0

Simplify

tan (2 x + 1 0^{\circ}) - cot (x - 4 0^{\circ}) : tan (\frac{36 x + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}) - cot (\frac{9 x - 36 0 ^{\circ}}{9})

tan (2 x + 1 0^{\circ}) - cot (x - 4 0^{\circ})

Join

2 x + 1 0^{\circ} : \frac{36 x + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}

2 x + 1 0^{\circ}

Convert element to fraction:

2 x = \frac{2 x 18}{18}

= \frac{2 x \cdot 18}{18} + 1 0^{\circ}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{2 x \cdot 18 + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 18 = 36

= \frac{36 x + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}

= tan (\frac{36 x + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}) - cot (x - 4 0^{\circ})

Join

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

x - 4 0^{\circ}

Convert element to fraction:

x = \frac{x 9}{9}

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

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

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

= tan (\frac{36 x + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}) - cot (\frac{9 x - 36 0 ^{\circ}}{9})

tan (\frac{36 x + 18 0 ^{\circ}}{18}) - cot (\frac{9 x - 36 0 ^{\circ}}{9}) = 0

Express with sin, cos

- cot (\frac{- 36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9}) + tan (\frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18})

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

= - \frac{cos ( \frac{- 36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} )}{sin ( \frac{- 36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} )} + tan (\frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18})

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

= - \frac{cos ( \frac{- 36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} )}{sin ( \frac{- 36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} )} + \frac{sin ( \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18} )}{cos ( \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18} )}

Simplify

multiply the denominator and numerator by

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

\frac{sin ( \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18} )}{cos ( \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18} )} = \frac{sin ( \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18} ) sin ( \frac{9 x - 36 0 ^{\circ}}{9} )}{cos ( \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18} ) sin ( \frac{9 x - 36 0 ^{\circ}}{9} )}

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

= - cos (\frac{- 36 0 ^{\circ} + 9 x}{9} + \frac{18 0 ^{\circ} + 36 x}{18})

Simplify

2 \cdot 9 x - 2 \cdot 36 0^{\circ} : 18 x - 72 0^{\circ}

2 \cdot 9 x - 2 \cdot 36 0^{\circ}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 9 = 18

= 18 x - 2 \cdot 36 0^{\circ}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= 18 x - 72 0^{\circ}

= 18 x - 72 0^{\circ}

= 18 x - 72 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} + 36 x

Simplify

18 x - 72 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} + 36 x : 54 x - 54 0^{\circ}

18 x - 72 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} + 36 x

Group like terms

= 18 x + 36 x - 72 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ}

Add similar elements:

18 x + 36 x = 54 x

= 54 x - 72 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ}

Add similar elements:

- 72 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} = - 54 0^{\circ}

= 54 x - 54 0^{\circ}

= 54 x - 54 0^{\circ}

54 x - 54 0^{\circ} = 486 0^{\circ} + 648 0^{\circ} n

Move

54 0^{\circ}

to the right side

54 x - 54 0^{\circ} = 486 0^{\circ} + 648 0^{\circ} n

Add

54 0^{\circ}

to both sides

54 x - 54 0^{\circ} + 54 0^{\circ} = 486 0^{\circ} + 648 0^{\circ} n + 54 0^{\circ}

Simplify

54 x = 540 0^{\circ} + 648 0^{\circ} n

54 x = 540 0^{\circ} + 648 0^{\circ} n

Divide both sides by

54

54 x = 540 0^{\circ} + 648 0^{\circ} n

Divide both sides by

54

\frac{54 x}{54} = 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{648 0 ^{\circ} n}{54}

Simplify

\frac{54 x}{54} = 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{648 0 ^{\circ} n}{54}

Simplify

\frac{54 x}{54} : x

\frac{54 x}{54}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{54}{54} = 1

= x

Simplify

10 0^{\circ} + \frac{648 0 ^{\circ} n}{54} : 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

10 0^{\circ} + \frac{648 0 ^{\circ} n}{54}

Cancel

\frac{648 0 ^{\circ} n}{54} : \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

\frac{648 0 ^{\circ} n}{54}

Cancel the common factor:

18

= \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

= 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

x = 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

x = 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

x = 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

x = 4 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}, x = 10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

Since the equation is undefined for:

10 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}

x = 4 0^{\circ} + \frac{36 0 ^{\circ} n}{3}
