pi/(12)=arcsin(x/2)

Solution

\frac{π}{12} = arcsin (\frac{x}{2})

Solution

x = \frac{6 - 2}{2}

Solution steps

\frac{π}{12} = arcsin (\frac{x}{2})

Switch sides

arcsin (\frac{x}{2}) = \frac{π}{12}

Apply trig inverse properties

arcsin (\frac{x}{2}) = \frac{π}{12}

arcsin (x) = a \Rightarrow x = sin (a)

\frac{x}{2} = sin (\frac{π}{12})

sin (\frac{π}{12}) = \frac{6 - 2}{4}

sin (\frac{π}{12})

Rewrite using trig identities:

sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (\frac{π}{6}) - cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (\frac{π}{6})

sin (\frac{π}{12})

Write

sin (\frac{π}{12})

sin (\frac{π}{4} - \frac{π}{6})

= sin (\frac{π}{4} - \frac{π}{6})

Use the Angle Difference identity:

sin (s - t) = sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (\frac{π}{6}) - cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (\frac{π}{6})

= sin (\frac{π}{4}) cos (\frac{π}{6}) - cos (\frac{π}{4}) sin (\frac{π}{6})

Use the following trivial identity:

sin (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

sin (\frac{π}{4})

= \frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} - \frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} : \frac{6 - 2}{4}

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

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} = \frac{6}{4}

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{2 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

= \frac{2 3}{4}

Simplify

23 : 6

23

Apply radical rule:

a b = a \cdot b

23 = 2 \cdot 3

= 2 \cdot 3

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 3 = 6

= 6

= \frac{6}{4}

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2}{4}

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{2 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply:

2 \cdot 1 = 2

= \frac{2}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{2}{4}

= \frac{6}{4} - \frac{2}{4}

Apply rule

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

= \frac{6 - 2}{4}

= \frac{6 - 2}{4}

\frac{x}{2} = \frac{6 - 2}{4}

\frac{x}{2} = \frac{6 - 2}{4}

Solve

\frac{x}{2} = \frac{6 - 2}{4} : x = \frac{6 - 2}{2}

\frac{x}{2} = \frac{6 - 2}{4}

Multiply both sides by

\frac{x}{2} = \frac{6 - 2}{4}

Multiply both sides by

Simplify

\frac{2 ( 6 - 2 )}{4} : \frac{6 - 2}{2}

\frac{2 ( 6 - 2 )}{4}

Factor the number:

4 = 2 \cdot 2

= \frac{2 ( 6 - 2 )}{2 \cdot 2}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{6 - 2}{2}

x = \frac{6 - 2}{2}

x = \frac{6 - 2}{2}

x = \frac{6 - 2}{2}

x = \frac{6 - 2}{2}
