sin(x)-2sin(x)cos(x)=0,0<= x<= 2pi

Solution

sin (x) - 2 sin (x) cos (x) = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Solution

x = 0, x = π, x = 2 π, x = \frac{π}{3}, x = \frac{5 π}{3}

Degrees

x = 0^{\circ}, x = 18 0^{\circ}, x = 36 0^{\circ}, x = 6 0^{\circ}, x = 30 0^{\circ}

Solution steps

sin (x) - 2 sin (x) cos (x) = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Factor

sin (x) - 2 sin (x) cos (x) : - sin (x) (2 cos (x) - 1)

sin (x) - 2 sin (x) cos (x)

Factor out common term

- sin (x)

= - sin (x) (- 1 + 2 cos (x))

- sin (x) (2 cos (x) - 1) = 0

Solving each part separately

sin (x) = 0 or 2 cos (x) - 1 = 0

sin (x) = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π : x = 0, x = π, x = 2 π

sin (x) = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Solve

x = 0 + 2 πn : x = 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn

0 + 2 πn = 2 πn

x = 2 πn

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Solutions for the range

0 \leq x \leq 2 π

x = 0, x = π, x = 2 π

2 cos (x) - 1 = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π : x = \frac{π}{3}, x = \frac{5 π}{3}

2 cos (x) - 1 = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Move

1

to the right side

2 cos (x) - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

2 cos (x) - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

2 cos (x) = 1

2 cos (x) = 1

Divide both sides by

2

2 cos (x) = 1

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 cos ( x )}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

cos (x) = \frac{1}{2}

cos (x) = \frac{1}{2}
