t=4500∘+18000∘n,t=−2.24887…∘−8.99550…∘n
Solution steps
−cos(20.02t)=sin(20t)
Multiply by −1cos(20.02t)=−sin(20t)
Rewrite using trig identities
cos(20.02t)=−sin(20t)
Use the following identity: −sin(x)=sin(−x)cos(20.02t)=sin(−(20t))
Use the following identity: cos(x)=sin(2π​−x)sin(2π​−20.02t)=sin(−(20t))
sin(2π​−20.02t)=sin(−(20t))
Apply trig inverse properties
sin(2π​−20.02t)=sin(−(20t))
sin(x)=sin(y)⇒x=y+2πn,x=π−y+2πn−(20t)=2π​−20.02t+2πn,−(20t)=π−(2π​−20.02t)+2πn
−(20t)=2π​−20.02t+2πn,−(20t)=π−(2π​−20.02t)+2πn
−(20t)=2π​−20.02t+2πn:t=25π(4n+1)
−(20t)=2π​−20.02t+2πn
Multiply both sides by 100
−(20t)=2π​−20.02t+2πn
To eliminate decimal points, multiply by 10 for every digit after the decimal pointThere are 2digits to the right of the decimal point, therefore multiply by 100−20t⋅100=2π​⋅100−20.02t⋅100+2πn⋅100
Refine−2000t=50π−2002t+200πn
−2000t=50π−2002t+200πn
Move 2002tto the left side

Add 2002t to both sides−2000t+2002t=50π−2002t+200πn+2002t
Simplify2t=50π+200πn
2t=50π+200πn
Divide both sides by 2
2t=50π+200πn
