13/12 =cosh(x/(120))

Solution

\frac{13}{12} = cosh (\frac{x}{120})

Solution

x = 120 ln (\frac{3}{2})

Degrees

x = 2787.77273 \dots^{\circ}

Solution steps

\frac{13}{12} = cosh (\frac{x}{120})

Switch sides

cosh (\frac{x}{120}) = \frac{13}{12}

Rewrite using trig identities

cosh (\frac{x}{120}) = \frac{13}{12}

Use the Hyperbolic identity:

cosh (x) = \frac{e ^{x} + e ^{- x}}{2}

\frac{e ^{\frac{x}{120}} + e ^{- \frac{x}{120}}}{2} = \frac{13}{12}

\frac{e ^{\frac{x}{120}} + e ^{- \frac{x}{120}}}{2} = \frac{13}{12}

\frac{e ^{\frac{x}{120}} + e ^{- \frac{x}{120}}}{2} = \frac{13}{12} : x = 120 ln (\frac{3}{2})

\frac{e ^{\frac{x}{120}} + e ^{- \frac{x}{120}}}{2} = \frac{13}{12}

Apply fraction cross multiply: if

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

then

a \cdot d = b \cdot c

(e^{\frac{x}{120}} + e^{- \frac{x}{120}}) \cdot 12 = 2 \cdot 13

Simplify

(e^{\frac{x}{120}} + e^{- \frac{x}{120}}) \cdot 12 = 26

Apply exponent rules

(e^{\frac{x}{120}} + e^{- \frac{x}{120}}) \cdot 12 = 26

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b c} = (a^{b})^{c}

e^{\frac{x}{120}} = (e^{x})^{0.00833 \dots}, e^{- \frac{x}{120}} = (e^{x})^{- 0.00833 \dots}

((e^{x})^{0.00833 \dots} + (e^{x})^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12 = 26

((e^{x})^{0.00833 \dots} + (e^{x})^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12 = 26

Rewrite the equation with

e^{x} = u

((u)^{0.00833 \dots} + (u)^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12 = 26

Solve

(u^{0.00833 \dots} + u^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12 = 26 : u = \frac{3 ^{120}}{2 ^{120}}, u = \frac{2 ^{120}}{3 ^{120}}

(u^{0.00833 \dots} + u^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12 = 26

Expand

(u^{0.00833 \dots} + u^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12 : 12 u^{0.00833 \dots} + \frac{12}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

(u^{0.00833 \dots} + u^{- 0.00833 \dots}) \cdot 12

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

= 12 (u^{0.00833 \dots} + \frac{1}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}})

Apply the distributive law:

a (b + c) = ab + a c

a = 12, b = u^{0.00833 \dots}, c = \frac{1}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

= 12 u^{0.00833 \dots} + 12 \cdot \frac{1}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

12 \cdot \frac{1}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}} = \frac{12}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

12 \cdot \frac{1}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{1 \cdot 12}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 12 = 12

= \frac{12}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

= 12 u^{0.00833 \dots} + \frac{12}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}}

12 u^{0.00833 \dots} + \frac{12}{u ^{0.00833 \dots}} = 26

Rewrite the equation with

12 v + \frac{12}{v} = 26

Solve

12 v + \frac{12}{v} = 26 : v = \frac{3}{2}, v = \frac{2}{3}

12 v + \frac{12}{v} = 26

Multiply both sides by

v

12 v + \frac{12}{v} = 26

Multiply both sides by

v

12 vv + \frac{12}{v} v = 26 v

Simplify

12 vv + \frac{12}{v} v = 26 v

Simplify

12 vv : 12 v^{2}

12 vv

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

vv = v^{1 + 1}

= 12 v^{1 + 1}

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 12 v^{2}

Simplify

\frac{12}{v} v : 12

\frac{12}{v} v

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{12 v}{v}

Cancel the common factor:

v

= 12

12 v^{2} + 12 = 26 v

12 v^{2} + 12 = 26 v

12 v^{2} + 12 = 26 v

Solve

12 v^{2} + 12 = 26 v : v = \frac{3}{2}, v = \frac{2}{3}

12 v^{2} + 12 = 26 v

Move

26 v

to the left side

12 v^{2} + 12 = 26 v

Subtract

26 v

from both sides

12 v^{2} + 12 - 26 v = 26 v - 26 v

Simplify

12 v^{2} + 12 - 26 v = 0

12 v^{2} + 12 - 26 v = 0

Write in the standard form

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

12 v^{2} - 26 v + 12 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

12 v^{2} - 26 v + 12 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 12, b = - 26, c = 12

v_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 26 ) \pm ( - 26 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 12 \cdot 12}{2 \cdot 12}

v_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 26 ) \pm ( - 26 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 12 \cdot 12}{2 \cdot 12}

(- 26)^{2} - 4 \cdot 12 \cdot 12 = 10

(- 26)^{2} - 4 \cdot 12 \cdot 12

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

n

is even

(- 26)^{2} = 2 6^{2}

= 2 6^{2} - 4 \cdot 12 \cdot 12

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 12 \cdot 12 = 576

= 2 6^{2} - 576

2 6^{2} = 676

= 676 - 576

Subtract the numbers:

676 - 576 = 100

= 100

Factor the number:

100 = 1 0^{2}

= 1 0^{2}

Apply radical rule:
