1-tan^2(x)=0

Solution

1 - tan^{2} (x) = 0

Solution

x = \frac{π}{4} + πn, x = \frac{3 π}{4} + πn

Degrees

x = 4 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 13 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

1 - tan^{2} (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

1 - tan^{2} (x) = 0

Let:

tan (x) = u

1 - u^{2} = 0

1 - u^{2} = 0 : u = 1, u = - 1

1 - u^{2} = 0

Move

1

to the right side

1 - u^{2} = 0

Subtract

1

from both sides

1 - u^{2} - 1 = 0 - 1

Simplify

- u^{2} = - 1

- u^{2} = - 1

Divide both sides by

- 1

- u^{2} = - 1

Divide both sides by

- 1

\frac{- u ^{2}}{- 1} = \frac{- 1}{- 1}

Simplify

u^{2} = 1

u^{2} = 1

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

x = f (a), - f (a)

u = 1, u = - 1

1 = 1

1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= 1

- 1 = - 1

- 1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= - 1

u = 1, u = - 1

Substitute back

u = tan (x)

tan (x) = 1, tan (x) = - 1

tan (x) = 1, tan (x) = - 1

tan (x) = 1 : x = \frac{π}{4} + πn

tan (x) = 1
