5sin(4x)=4cos(2x)

Solution

5 sin (4 x) = 4 cos (2 x)

Solution

x = \frac{π + 4 πn}{4}, x = \frac{3 π + 4 πn}{4}, x = \frac{0.41151 \dots + 2 πn}{2}, x = \frac{π - 0.41151 \dots + 2 πn}{2}

Degrees

x = 4 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 13 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 11.78908 \dots^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 78.21091 \dots^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

5 sin (4 x) = 4 cos (2 x)

Subtract

4 cos (2 x)

from both sides

5 sin (4 x) - 4 cos (2 x) = 0

Let:

u = 2 x

5 sin (2 u) - 4 cos (u) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 4 cos (u) + 5 sin (2 u)

Use the Double Angle identity:

sin (2 x) = 2 sin (x) cos (x)

= - 4 cos (u) + 5 \cdot 2 sin (u) cos (u)

Simplify

= - 4 cos (u) + 10 sin (u) cos (u)

- 4 cos (u) + 10 cos (u) sin (u) = 0

Factor

- 4 cos (u) + 10 cos (u) sin (u) : 2 cos (u) (5 sin (u) - 2)

- 4 cos (u) + 10 cos (u) sin (u)

Rewrite

5 \cdot 2

Rewrite

- 4

2 \cdot 2

= 2 \cdot 2 cos (u) + 5 \cdot 2 sin (u) cos (u)

Factor out common term

2 cos (u)

= 2 cos (u) (- 2 + 5 sin (u))

2 cos (u) (5 sin (u) - 2) = 0

Solving each part separately

cos (u) = 0 or 5 sin (u) - 2 = 0

cos (u) = 0 : u = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn, u = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn

cos (u) = 0

Move

2

to the right side

5 sin (u) - 2 = 0

Add

2

to both sides

5 sin (u) - 2 + 2 = 0 + 2

Simplify

5 sin (u) = 2

5 sin (u) = 2

Divide both sides by

5 sin (u) = 2

Divide both sides by

\frac{5 sin ( u )}{5} = \frac{2}{5}

Simplify

sin (u) = \frac{2}{5}

sin (u) = \frac{2}{5}

Apply trig inverse properties

sin (u) = \frac{2}{5}

General solutions for

sin (u) = \frac{2}{5}

sin (x) = a \Rightarrow x = arcsin (a) + 2 πn, x = π - arcsin (a) + 2 πn

u = arcsin (\frac{2}{5}) + 2 πn, u = π - arcsin (\frac{2}{5}) + 2 πn

u = arcsin (\frac{2}{5}) + 2 πn, u = π - arcsin (\frac{2}{5}) + 2 πn

Combine all the solutions

u = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn, u = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn, u = arcsin (\frac{2}{5}) + 2 πn, u = π - arcsin (\frac{2}{5}) + 2 πn

Substitute back

u = 2 x

2 x = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn : x = \frac{π + 4 πn}{4}

2 x = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by
