x=9∘+36∘n,x=−68.54577…∘−45∘n
Solution steps
sin(x−4)=cos(9x+4)
Rewrite using trig identities
sin(x−4)=cos(9x+4)
Use the following identity: cos(x)=sin(2π​−x)sin(x−4)=sin(2π​−(9x+4))
sin(x−4)=sin(2π​−(9x+4))
Apply trig inverse properties
sin(x−4)=sin(2π​−(9x+4))
sin(x)=sin(y)⇒x=y+2πn,x=π−y+2πnx−4=2π​−(9x+4)+2πn,x−4=π−(2π​−(9x+4))+2πn
