1+cos(x)=sqrt(3)-sin(x)

Solution

1 + cos (x) = 3 - sin (x)

Solution

x = 0.54408 \dots + 2 πn - \frac{π}{4}, x = π - 0.54408 \dots + 2 πn - \frac{π}{4}

Degrees

x = - 13.82604 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 103.82604 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

1 + cos (x) = 3 - sin (x)

Subtract

3 - sin (x)

from both sides

1 + cos (x) - 3 + sin (x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

1 + cos (x) - 3 + sin (x)

sin (x) + cos (x) = 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4})

sin (x) + cos (x)

Rewrite as

= 2 (\frac{1}{2} sin (x) + \frac{1}{2} cos (x))

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{1}{2}

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{1}{2}

= 2 (cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (x) + sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (x))

Use the Angle Sum identity:

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

= 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4})

= 1 - 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4})

1 - 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = 0

Move

1

to the right side

1 - 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = 0

Subtract

1

from both sides

1 - 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) - 1 = 0 - 1

Simplify

- 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = - 1

- 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = - 1

Move

3

to the right side

- 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = - 1

Add

3

to both sides

- 3 + 2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) + 3 = - 1 + 3

Simplify

2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = - 1 + 3

2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = - 1 + 3

Divide both sides by

2

2 sin (x + \frac{π}{4}) = - 1 + 3

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 sin ( x + \frac{π}{4} )}{2} = - \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 sin ( x + \frac{π}{4} )}{2} = - \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 sin ( x + \frac{π}{4} )}{2} : sin (x + \frac{π}{4})

= sin (x + \frac{π}{4})

Simplify

- \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{2} : \frac{2 ( - 1 + 3 )}{2}

- \frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{2}

Apply rule
