Cevap: 0∘,120∘,240∘,360∘0^\circ, 120^\circ, 240^\circ, 360^\circ

Cevap

The complete set of solutions is 0∘,120∘,240∘,360∘0^\circ, 120^\circ, 240^\circ, 360^\circ.
Factoring 2cos⁡2x−cos⁡x−1=02\cos^2 x - \cos x - 1 = 0 gives (2cos⁡x+1)(cos⁡x−1)=0(2\cos x + 1)(\cos x - 1) = 0. Setting the first factor to zero yields cos⁡x=−12\cos x = -\frac{1}{2}, which has solutions at 120∘120^\circ and 240∘240^\circ in the interval [0∘,360∘][0^\circ, 360^\circ]. Setting the second factor to zero gives cos⁡x=1\cos x = 1, which has solutions at 0∘0^\circ and 360∘360^\circ. Combining these yields the set 0∘,120∘,240∘,360∘0^\circ, 120^\circ, 240^\circ, 360^\circ.

1
Factor the quadratic trigonometric equation
(2cos⁡x+1)(cos⁡x−1)=0(2\cos x + 1)(\cos x - 1) = 0
Treat cos⁡x\cos x as a single variable to simplify into standard quadratic factors.
2
Set each factor to zero to find values for cos⁡x\cos x
cos⁡x=1\cos x = 1 or cos⁡x=−12\cos x = -\frac{1}{2}
Zero-product property requires at least one factor to be zero.
3

Find the smallest positive value of θ\theta (in degrees) satisfying the trigonometric equation sin⁡(3θ)+3cos⁡(3θ)=2\sin(3\theta) + \sqrt{3}\cos(3\theta) = \sqrt{2}.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 25

Cevap

The smallest positive value of θ\theta is 25∘25^\circ.
Dividing the equation by 22 reduces it to sin⁡(3θ+60∘)=22\sin(3\theta + 60^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}. The principal acute angle is 45∘45^\circ. The second quadrant angle giving a positive sine is 180∘−45∘=135∘180^\circ - 45^\circ = 135^\circ. Setting 3θ+60∘=135∘3\theta + 60^\circ = 135^\circ gives 3θ=75∘3\theta = 75^\circ, which yields θ=25∘\theta = 25^\circ. This is smaller than any positive solution generated by the first quadrant branch.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Transform the left-hand side into a single harmonic function Rsin⁡(3θ+α)R\sin(3\theta + \alpha).
Dividing the equation by 22 yields 12sin⁡(3θ)+32cos⁡(3θ)=22\frac{1}{2}\sin(3\theta) + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cos(3\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, which simplifies to sin⁡(3θ+60∘)=22\sin(3\theta + 60^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}.
The identity sin⁡(A+B)=sin⁡Acos⁡B+cos⁡Asin⁡B\sin(A + B) = \sin A \cos B + \cos A \sin B allows us to combine sin⁡(3θ)\sin(3\theta) and cos⁡(3θ)\cos(3\theta) using cos⁡60∘=12\cos 60^\circ = \frac{1}{2} and sin⁡60∘=32\sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}.
2
Find the quadrant solutions for the angle 3θ+60∘3\theta + 60^\circ.
First quadrant: 3θ+60∘=45∘+360∘k  ⟹  3θ=−15∘+360∘k3\theta + 60^\circ = 45^\circ + 360^\circ k \implies 3\theta = -15^\circ + 360^\circ k.
Second quadrant: 3θ+60∘=135∘+360∘k  ⟹  3θ=75∘+360∘k3\theta + 60^\circ = 135^\circ + 360^\circ k \implies 3\theta = 75^\circ + 360^\circ k.
Since the sine of the angle is positive (22\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}), solutions exist in both the first (45∘45^\circ) and second (180∘−45∘=135∘180^\circ - 45^\circ = 135^\circ) quadrants.
3
Calculate the smallest positive angle θ\theta.
For k=0k = 0 in the second quadrant branch, 3θ=75∘  ⟹  θ=25∘3\theta = 75^\circ \implies \theta = 25^\circ. (The first quadrant branch yields θ=−5∘\theta = -5^\circ for k=0k=0 and θ=115∘\theta = 115^\circ for k=1k=1). Thus, θ=25∘\theta = 25^\circ is the smallest positive solution.
Comparing all non-negative resulting angles demonstrates that 25∘25^\circ is the smallest strictly positive solution.

Isolating tan⁡(2x)\tan(2x) gives 3\sqrt{3}. For 0∘≤2x≤360∘0^\circ \le 2x \le 360^\circ, tan⁡(2x)=3\tan(2x) = \sqrt{3} yields solutions at 2x=60∘2x = 60^\circ and 2x=240∘2x = 240^\circ. Dividing by 2 gives x=30∘x = 30^\circ and x=120∘x = 120^\circ. Adding these solutions yields 30∘+120∘=150∘30^\circ + 120^\circ = 150^\circ.

tan⁡(2x)=33=3\tan(2x) = \frac{3}{\sqrt{3}} = \sqrt{3}
Dividing both sides by \sqrt{3} simplifies the expression to a standard special angle ratio.
2
Determine the domain for the argument 2x2x
Since 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ, multiplying the inequality by 2 gives 0∘≤2x≤360∘0^\circ \le 2x \le 360^\circ.
This establishes the range of angles to search for 2x2x within one complete turn.
3
Find all values of 2x2x where tangent equals 3\sqrt{3}
2x=60∘2x = 60^\circ (1st quadrant) and 2x=180∘+60∘=240∘2x = 180^\circ + 60^\circ = 240^\circ (3rd quadrant)

30∘+120∘=150∘30^\circ + 120^\circ = 150^\circ

Cevap: 6

Cevap

The total number of distinct solutions is 6.
Substituting cos⁡2(2x)=1−sin⁡2(2x)\cos^2(2x) = 1 - \sin^2(2x) gives the quadratic 2sin⁡2(2x)−sin⁡(2x)−1=02\sin^2(2x) - \sin(2x) - 1 = 0, which factors into (2sin⁡(2x)+1)(sin⁡(2x)−1)=0(2\sin(2x) + 1)(\sin(2x) - 1) = 0. For 0∘≤x≤360∘0^\circ \le x \le 360^\circ, the angle argument 2x2x covers 0∘≤2x≤720∘0^\circ \le 2x \le 720^\circ. The equation sin⁡(2x)=1\sin(2x) = 1 provides 2 values for xx (45∘,225∘45^\circ, 225^\circ), while sin⁡(2x)=−12\sin(2x) = -\frac{1}{2} provides 4 values for xx (105∘,165∘,285∘,345∘105^\circ, 165^\circ, 285^\circ, 345^\circ). Summing these gives 6 distinct solutions in total.

Cevap

The correct set of solutions is \{30^\circ, 90^\circ, 150^\circ\}.
Using the identity sin⁡2x=2sin⁡xcos⁡x\sin 2x = 2\sin x \cos x, the equation becomes 2sin⁡xcos⁡x−cos⁡x=02\sin x \cos x - \cos x = 0. Factoring out cos⁡x\cos x gives cos⁡x(2sin⁡x−1)=0\cos x(2\sin x - 1) = 0. Setting each factor to zero yields cos⁡x=0\cos x = 0 (giving x=90∘x = 90^\circ) and sin⁡x=12\sin x = \frac{1}{2} (giving x=30∘x = 30^\circ and x=150∘x = 150^\circ).

Cevap: 20

Cevap

The value of xx in the interval 0∘≤x≤90∘0^\circ \le x \le 90^\circ satisfying the equation is 20∘20^\circ.
Using the co-function identity cos⁡α=sin⁡(90∘−α)\cos \alpha = \sin(90^\circ - \alpha), we convert the right-hand side to sin⁡(90∘−(x+30∘))=sin⁡(60∘−x)\sin(90^\circ - (x + 30^\circ)) = \sin(60^\circ - x). Equating the arguments gives 2x=60∘−x2x = 60^\circ - x, which simplifies to 3x=60∘3x = 60^\circ, yielding x=20∘x = 20^\circ.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Apply the co-function trigonometric identity
cos⁡(x+30∘)=sin⁡(90∘−(x+30∘))=sin⁡(60∘−x)\cos(x + 30^\circ) = \sin(90^\circ - (x + 30^\circ)) = \sin(60^\circ - x)
Converting cosine to sine allows direct comparison of sine functions on both sides of the equation.
2
Set up the equation equating the angle expressions
2x=60∘−x2x = 60^\circ - x
Since sin⁡(2x)=sin⁡(60∘−x)\sin(2x) = \sin(60^\circ - x) and x∈[0∘,90∘]x \in [0^\circ, 90^\circ], equating the principal angle arguments gives the primary solution.
3
Solve the linear equation for xx
3x=60∘  ⟹  x=20∘3x = 60^\circ \implies x = 20^\circ
Adding xx to both sides gives 3x=60∘3x = 60^\circ, and dividing by 3 yields x=20∘x = 20^\circ.

For the domain 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ, what is the complete solution set to the trigonometric equation 4sin⁡2x−3=04\sin^2 x - 3 = 0?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: {60∘,120∘}\{60^\circ, 120^\circ\}

Cevap

{60∘,120∘}\{60^\circ, 120^\circ\}
Solving the equation 4sin⁡2x−3=04\sin^2 x - 3 = 0 gives sin⁡2x=34\sin^2 x = \frac{3}{4}, which simplifies to sin⁡x=32\sin x = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} within the interval 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ. The principal angle is 60∘60^\circ. Since sine is positive in both the first and second quadrants, the second valid angle in the domain is 180∘−60∘=120∘180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ, giving the solution set {60∘,120∘}\{60^\circ, 120^\circ\}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Isolate the trigonometric term
sin⁡2x=34\sin^2 x = \frac{3}{4}
Rearrange 4sin⁡2x−3=04\sin^2 x - 3 = 0 by adding 3 to both sides and dividing by 4.
2
Take the square root of both sides
sin⁡x=±32\sin x = \pm \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
Taking the square root yields both positive and negative ratios.
3
Apply the domain restriction 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ
sin⁡x=32\sin x = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
The sine function is non-negative in the first and second quadrants (0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ), so the negative root has no solutions in this interval.
4
Determine the angles for xx
x = 60^\circ \text{ and } x = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ
The reference angle is 60∘60^\circ because sin⁡60∘=32\sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}. In Quadrant II, the corresponding angle is 180∘−60∘=120∘180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ.

Cevap: 330

Cevap

The sum of all values of xx satisfying the equation in the domain 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ is 330.
Transforming the domain 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ gives −45∘≤3x−45∘≤495∘-45^\circ \le 3x - 45^\circ \le 495^\circ. The angles within this range where the cosine value equals −22-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} are 135∘135^\circ, 225∘225^\circ, and 495∘495^\circ. Solving 3x−45∘3x - 45^\circ for each of these angles gives x=60∘x = 60^\circ, 90∘90^\circ, and 180∘180^\circ. Summing these three roots yields 330∘330^\circ.

−45∘≤3x−45∘≤495∘-45^\circ \le 3x - 45^\circ \le 495^\circ
Applying the linear transformation 3x−45∘3x - 45^\circ to the given domain 0∘≤x≤180∘0^\circ \le x \le 180^\circ establishes the exact boundaries for the argument of the cosine function.
2
Find all values of θ\theta within [−45∘,495∘][-45^\circ, 495^\circ] satisfying cos⁡θ=−22\cos \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}.
θ∈{135∘,225∘,495∘}\theta \in \{135^\circ, 225^\circ, 495^\circ\}
Cosine is negative in Quadrants II and III. The reference angle is 45∘45^\circ, giving base solutions 135∘135^\circ and 225∘225^\circ. Adding 360∘360^\circ to 135∘135^\circ gives 495∘495^\circ, which lies exactly on the upper boundary.
3
Solve for xx by setting 3x−45∘3x - 45^\circ equal to each valid θ\theta.
x∈{60∘,90∘,180∘}x \in \{60^\circ, 90^\circ, 180^\circ\}
Isolating xx yields x=θ+45∘3x = \frac{\theta + 45^\circ}{3}. All three resulting values lie within [0∘,180∘][0^\circ, 180^\circ].
4
Sum the valid solution values.
60^\circ + 90^\circ + 180^\circ = 330^\circ
The problem asks specifically for the sum of all solution angles in degrees.

Cevap: 72

Cevap

The period of the trigonometric function is 72 degrees.
For any function of the form y=Asin⁡(Bx)+Dy = A\sin(Bx) + D, the period TT in degrees is calculated using T=360∘∣B∣T = \frac{360^\circ}{|B|}. For the given equation y=7sin⁡(5x)−2y = 7\sin(5x) - 2, the value of BB is 5. Substituting this into the formula gives T=360∘5=72∘T = \frac{360^\circ}{5} = 72^\circ.

Here, A=7A = 7, B=5B = 5, and D=−2D = -2.
The period of a sine function depends on the angular frequency parameter BB multiplying the input variable xx.

The smallest positive angle θ\theta is 30∘30^\circ.
To find the smallest positive value of θ\theta, first isolate the sine function by dividing both sides by 2 to obtain sin⁡(3θ−30∘)=32\sin(3\theta - 30^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}. The smallest positive angle with a sine of 32\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} is 60∘60^\circ. Setting 3θ−30∘=60∘3\theta - 30^\circ = 60^\circ yields 3θ=90∘3\theta = 90^\circ, which gives θ=30∘\theta = 30^\circ.

1
Isolate the trigonometric ratio
sin⁡(3θ−30∘)=32\sin(3\theta - 30^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
Dividing both sides of 2sin⁡(3θ−30∘)=32\sin(3\theta - 30^\circ) = \sqrt{3} by 2 simplifies the equation into standard form.
2
Determine the primary angle solution
3θ−30∘=60∘3\theta - 30^\circ = 60^\circ
The smallest positive angle whose sine equals 32\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} is 60∘60^\circ.
3
Solve the linear equation for θ\theta
θ=30∘\theta = 30^\circ
Adding 30∘30^\circ to both sides gives 3θ=90∘3\theta = 90^\circ, and dividing by 3 yields θ=30∘\theta = 30^\circ.

The value of a+b+ca + b + c is 11.
Using the maximum (a+c=8a + c = 8) and minimum (−a+c=−2-a + c = -2), solving simultaneously gives a=5a = 5 and c=3c = 3. Using the period formula T=360∘b=120∘T = \frac{360^\circ}{b} = 120^\circ, we obtain b=3b = 3. Adding these values together yields 5+3+3=115 + 3 + 3 = 11.

Set up a system of linear equations for the amplitude and vertical shift from the maximum and minimum bounds
a=5a = 5 and c=3c = 3
Since sin⁡(bx)\sin(bx) ranges from −1-1 to 11, the maximum is a(1)+c=8a(1) + c = 8 and minimum is a(−1)+c=−2a(-1) + c = -2. Solving these simultaneous equations gives c=3c = 3 and a=5a = 5.
