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

Solution

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

Solution

x = \frac{4 πn + π - 6}{6}, x = - \frac{π + 4 πn - 14}{2}

Degrees

x = - 27.29577 \dots^{\circ} + 12 0^{\circ} n, x = 311.07045 \dots^{\circ} - 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

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

Rewrite using trig identities

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

Use the following identity:

cos (x) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - x)

sin (x + 5) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2))

sin (x + 5) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2))

Apply trig inverse properties

sin (x + 5) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2))

sin (x) = sin (y) \Rightarrow x = y + 2 π n, x = π - y + 2 π n

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

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

x + 5 = \frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2) + 2 πn : x = \frac{4 πn + π - 6}{6}

x + 5 = \frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2) + 2 πn

Expand

\frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2) + 2 πn : \frac{π}{2} - 2 x + 2 + 2 πn

\frac{π}{2} - (2 x - 2) + 2 πn

- (2 x - 2) : - 2 x + 2

- (2 x - 2)

Distribute parentheses

= - (2 x) - (- 2)

Apply minus-plus rules

- (- a) = a, - (a) = - a

= - 2 x + 2

= \frac{π}{2} - 2 x + 2 + 2 πn

x + 5 = \frac{π}{2} - 2 x + 2 + 2 πn

Move

5

to the right side

x + 5 = \frac{π}{2} - 2 x + 2 + 2 πn

Subtract
