sin(2x+10)=cos(3x-20)

Solution

sin (2 x + 10) = cos (3 x - 20)

Solution

x = \frac{4 πn + 20 + π}{10}, x = - \frac{π + 4 πn - 60}{2}

Degrees

x = 132.59155 \dots^{\circ} + 7 2^{\circ} n, x = 1628.87338 \dots^{\circ} - 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

sin (2 x + 10) = cos (3 x - 20)

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (2 x + 10) = cos (3 x - 20)

Use the following identity:

cos (x) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - x)

sin (2 x + 10) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20))

sin (2 x + 10) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20))

Apply trig inverse properties

sin (2 x + 10) = sin (\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20))

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

2 x + 10 = \frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20) + 2 πn, 2 x + 10 = π - (\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20)) + 2 πn

2 x + 10 = \frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20) + 2 πn, 2 x + 10 = π - (\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20)) + 2 πn

2 x + 10 = \frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20) + 2 πn : x = \frac{4 πn + 20 + π}{10}

2 x + 10 = \frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20) + 2 πn

Expand

\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20) + 2 πn : \frac{π}{2} - 3 x + 20 + 2 πn

\frac{π}{2} - (3 x - 20) + 2 πn

- (3 x - 20) : - 3 x + 20

- (3 x - 20)

Distribute parentheses

= - (3 x) - (- 20)

Apply minus-plus rules

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

= - 3 x + 20

= \frac{π}{2} - 3 x + 20 + 2 πn

2 x + 10 = \frac{π}{2} - 3 x + 20 + 2 πn
