4sin(θ)=csc(θ)

Solution

4 sin (θ) = csc (θ)

Solution

θ = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Degrees

θ = 3 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 15 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 21 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 33 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

4 sin (θ) = csc (θ)

Subtract

csc (θ)

from both sides

4 sin (θ) - csc (θ) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- csc (θ) + 4 sin (θ)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

sin (x) = \frac{1}{csc ( x )}

= - csc (θ) + 4 \cdot \frac{1}{csc ( θ )}

4 \cdot \frac{1}{csc ( θ )} = \frac{4}{csc ( θ )}

4 \cdot \frac{1}{csc ( θ )}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 4}{csc ( θ )}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 4 = 4

= \frac{4}{csc ( θ )}

= - csc (θ) + \frac{4}{csc ( θ )}

- csc (θ) + \frac{4}{csc ( θ )} = 0

Solve by substitution

- csc (θ) + \frac{4}{csc ( θ )} = 0

Let:

csc (θ) = u

- u + \frac{4}{u} = 0

- u + \frac{4}{u} = 0 : u = 2, u = - 2

- u + \frac{4}{u} = 0

Multiply both sides by

u

- u + \frac{4}{u} = 0

Multiply both sides by

u

- uu + \frac{4}{u} u = 0 \cdot u

Simplify

- uu + \frac{4}{u} u = 0 \cdot u

Simplify

- uu : - u^{2}

- uu

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

uu = u^{1 + 1}

= - u^{1 + 1}

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= - u^{2}

Simplify

\frac{4}{u} u : 4

\frac{4}{u} u

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{4 u}{u}

Cancel the common factor:

u

= 4

Simplify

0 \cdot u : 0

0 \cdot u

Apply rule

0 \cdot a = 0

= 0

- u^{2} + 4 = 0

- u^{2} + 4 = 0

- u^{2} + 4 = 0

Solve

- u^{2} + 4 = 0 : u = 2, u = - 2

- u^{2} + 4 = 0

Move

4

to the right side

- u^{2} + 4 = 0

Subtract

4

from both sides

- u^{2} + 4 - 4 = 0 - 4

Simplify

- u^{2} = - 4

- u^{2} = - 4

Divide both sides by

- 1

- u^{2} = - 4

Divide both sides by

- 1

\frac{- u ^{2}}{- 1} = \frac{- 4}{- 1}

Simplify

u^{2} = 4

u^{2} = 4

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

x = f (a), - f (a)

u = 4, u = - 4

4 = 2

4

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

- 4 = - 2

- 4

4 = 2

4

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

= - 2

u = 2, u = - 2

u = 2, u = - 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

u = 0

Take the denominator(s) of

- u + \frac{4}{u}

and compare to zero

u = 0

The following points are undefined

u = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

u = 2, u = - 2

Substitute back

u = csc (θ)

csc (θ) = 2, csc (θ) = - 2

csc (θ) = 2, csc (θ) = - 2

csc (θ) = 2 : θ = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn

csc (θ) = 2
