Solution steps
3​sec(5x)−2=0
Move 2to the right side
3​sec(5x)−2=0
Add 2 to both sides3​sec(5x)−2+2=0+2
Simplify3​sec(5x)=2
3​sec(5x)=2
Divide both sides by 3​
3​sec(5x)=2
Divide both sides by 3​3​3​sec(5x)​=3​2​
Simplify
3​3​sec(5x)​=3​2​
Simplify 3​3​sec(5x)​:sec(5x)
3​3​sec(5x)​
Cancel the common factor: 3​=sec(5x)
Simplify 3​2​:323​​
3​2​
Multiply by the conjugate 3​3​​=3​3​23​​
3​3​=3
3​3​
Apply radical rule: a​a​=a3​3​=3=3
=323​​
sec(5x)=323​​
sec(5x)=323​​
sec(5x)=323​​

5x=6π​+2πn,5x=611π​+2πn
5x=6π​+2πn,5x=611π​+2πn
Solve 5x=6π​+2πn:x=30π​+52πn​
5x=6π​+2πn
Divide both sides by 5
5x=6π​+2πn
Divide both sides by 555x​=56π​​+52πn​
Simplify
55x​=56π​​+52πn​
Simplify 55x​:x
55x​
Divide the numbers: 55​=1=x
Simplify 56π​​+52πn​:30π​+52πn​
56π​​+52πn​
56π​​=30π​
56π​​
Apply the fraction rule: acb​​=c⋅ab​=6⋅5π​
Multiply the numbers: 6⋅5=30=30π​
=30π​+52πn​
x=30π​+52πn​
x=30π​+52πn​
x=30π​+52πn​
Solve 5x=611π​+2πn:x=3011π​+52πn​
5x=611π​+2πn
Divide both sides by 5
5x=611π​+2πn
Divide both sides by 555x​=5611π​​+52πn​
Simplify
55x​=5611π​​+52πn​
Simplify 55x​:x
55x​
Divide the numbers: 55​=1=x
Simplify 5611π​​+52πn​:3011π​+52πn​
5611π​​+52πn​
5611π​​=3011π​
5611π​​
Apply the fraction rule: acb​​=c⋅ab​=6⋅511π​
Multiply the numbers: 6⋅5=30=3011π​
=3011π​+52πn​
x=3011π​+52πn​
x=3011π​+52πn​
x=3011π​+52πn​
x=30π​+52πn​,x=3011π​+52πn​
