cos(x)=(-3)/(5sin^2(x))

Solution

cos (x) = \frac{- 3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

Solution

No Solution for x \in R

Solution steps

cos (x) = \frac{- 3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

Subtract

\frac{- 3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

from both sides

cos (x) + \frac{3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )} = 0

Simplify

cos (x) + \frac{3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )} : \frac{5 sin ^{2} ( x ) cos ( x ) + 3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

cos (x) + \frac{3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

Convert element to fraction:

cos (x) = \frac{cos ( x ) 5 sin ^{2} ( x )}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

= \frac{cos ( x ) \cdot 5 sin ^{2} ( x )}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )} + \frac{3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{cos ( x ) \cdot 5 sin ^{2} ( x ) + 3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )}

\frac{5 sin ^{2} ( x ) cos ( x ) + 3}{5 sin ^{2} ( x )} = 0

\frac{f ( x )}{g ( x )} = 0 \Rightarrow f (x) = 0

5 sin^{2} (x) cos (x) + 3 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

3 + 5 cos (x) sin^{2} (x)

Use the Pythagorean identity:

cos^{2} (x) + sin^{2} (x) = 1

sin^{2} (x) = 1 - cos^{2} (x)

= 3 + 5 cos (x) (1 - cos^{2} (x))

3 + (1 - cos^{2} (x)) \cdot 5 cos (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

3 + (1 - cos^{2} (x)) \cdot 5 cos (x) = 0

Let:

cos (x) = u

3 + (1 - u^{2}) \cdot 5 u = 0

3 + (1 - u^{2}) \cdot 5 u = 0 : u \approx 1.22119 \dots

3 + (1 - u^{2}) \cdot 5 u = 0

Expand

3 + (1 - u^{2}) \cdot 5 u : 3 + 5 u - 5 u^{3}

3 + (1 - u^{2}) \cdot 5 u

= 3 + 5 u (1 - u^{2})

Expand

5 u (1 - u^{2}) : 5 u - 5 u^{3}

5 u (1 - u^{2})

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 5 u, b = 1, c = u^{2}

= 5 u \cdot 1 - 5 u u^{2}

= 5 \cdot 1 \cdot u - 5 u^{2} u

Simplify

5 \cdot 1 \cdot u - 5 u^{2} u : 5 u - 5 u^{3}

5 \cdot 1 \cdot u - 5 u^{2} u

5 \cdot 1 \cdot u = 5 u

5 \cdot 1 \cdot u

Multiply the numbers:

5 \cdot 1 = 5

= 5 u

5 u^{2} u = 5 u^{3}

5 u^{2} u

Apply exponent rule:

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

u^{2} u = u^{2 + 1}

= 5 u^{2 + 1}

Add the numbers:

2 + 1 = 3

= 5 u^{3}

= 5 u - 5 u^{3}

= 5 u - 5 u^{3}

= 3 + 5 u - 5 u^{3}

3 + 5 u - 5 u^{3} = 0

Write in the standard form

a_{n} x^{n} + \dots + a_{1} x + a_{0} = 0

- 5 u^{3} + 5 u + 3 = 0
