2 θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, 2 θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

2 θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, 2 θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Solve

2 θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{π}{8} + πn

2 θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 θ}{2} = \frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 θ}{2} = \frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 θ}{2} : θ

\frac{2 θ}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= θ

Simplify

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2} : \frac{π}{8} + πn

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} = \frac{π}{8}

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{π}{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= \frac{π}{8}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{8} + πn

Solve

2 θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

2 θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 θ}{2} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2} = \frac{7 π}{8}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{7 π}{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= \frac{7 π}{8}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{8} + πn, θ = \frac{7 π}{8} + πn
