8cos(x)+8sin(x)tan(x)=16

Solution

8 cos (x) + 8 sin (x) tan (x) = 16

Solution

x = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn, x = \frac{5 π}{3} + 2 πn

Degrees

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

Solution steps

8 cos (x) + 8 sin (x) tan (x) = 16

Subtract

16

from both sides

8 cos (x) + 8 sin (x) tan (x) - 16 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 16 + 8 cos (x) + 8 sin (x) tan (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= - 16 + 8 cos (x) + 8 sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

8 sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = \frac{8 sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

8 sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{sin ( x ) \cdot 8 sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

sin (x) \cdot 8 sin (x) = 8 sin^{2} (x)

sin (x) \cdot 8 sin (x)

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

sin (x) sin (x) = sin^{1 + 1} (x)

= 8 sin^{1 + 1} (x)

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 8 sin^{2} (x)

= \frac{8 sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= - 16 + 8 cos (x) + \frac{8 sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Use the Pythagorean identity:

cos^{2} (x) + sin^{2} (x) = 1

sin^{2} (x) = 1 - cos^{2} (x)

= - 16 + \frac{8 ( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) )}{cos ( x )} + 8 cos (x)

Combine the fractions

\frac{8 ( - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 1 )}{cos ( x )} + 8 cos (x) : \frac{8}{cos ( x )}

\frac{8 ( - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 1 )}{cos ( x )} + 8 cos (x)

Convert element to fraction:

8 cos (x) = \frac{8 cos ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{8 ( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) )}{cos ( x )} + \frac{8 cos ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{8 ( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) ) + 8 cos ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

8 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 8 cos (x) cos (x) = 8 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 8 cos^{2} (x)

8 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 8 cos (x) cos (x)

8 cos (x) cos (x) = 8 cos^{2} (x)

8 cos (x) cos (x)

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

cos (x) cos (x) = cos^{1 + 1} (x)

= 8 cos^{1 + 1} (x)

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 8 cos^{2} (x)

= 8 (- cos^{2} (x) + 1) + 8 cos^{2} (x)

= \frac{8 ( - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) + 8 cos ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Expand

8 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 8 cos^{2} (x) : 8

8 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 8 cos^{2} (x)

Expand

8 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) : 8 - 8 cos^{2} (x)

8 (1 - cos^{2} (x))

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 8, b = 1, c = cos^{2} (x)

= 8 \cdot 1 - 8 cos^{2} (x)

Multiply the numbers:

8 \cdot 1 = 8

= 8 - 8 cos^{2} (x)

= 8 - 8 cos^{2} (x) + 8 cos^{2} (x)

Add similar elements:

- 8 cos^{2} (x) + 8 cos^{2} (x) = 0

= 8

= \frac{8}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{8}{cos ( x )} - 16

- 16 + \frac{8}{cos ( x )} = 0

- 16 + \frac{8}{cos ( x )} = 0

Multiply both sides by

cos (x)

- 16 + \frac{8}{cos ( x )} = 0

Multiply both sides by

cos (x)

- 16 cos (x) + \frac{8}{cos ( x )} cos (x) = 0 \cdot cos (x)

Simplify

- 16 cos (x) + \frac{8}{cos ( x )} cos (x) = 0 \cdot cos (x)

Simplify

\frac{8}{cos ( x )} cos (x) : 8

\frac{8}{cos ( x )} cos (x)

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{8 cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Cancel the common factor:

cos (x)

= 8

Simplify

0 \cdot cos (x) : 0

0 \cdot cos (x)

Apply rule

0 \cdot a = 0

= 0

- 16 cos (x) + 8 = 0

- 16 cos (x) + 8 = 0

- 16 cos (x) + 8 = 0

Move

8

to the right side

- 16 cos (x) + 8 = 0

Subtract

8

from both sides

- 16 cos (x) + 8 - 8 = 0 - 8

Simplify

- 16 cos (x) = - 8

- 16 cos (x) = - 8

Divide both sides by

- 16

- 16 cos (x) = - 8

Divide both sides by

- 16

\frac{- 16 cos ( x )}{- 16} = \frac{- 8}{- 16}

Simplify

\frac{- 16 cos ( x )}{- 16} = \frac{- 8}{- 16}

Simplify

\frac{- 16 cos ( x )}{- 16} : cos (x)

\frac{- 16 cos ( x )}{- 16}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{- b} = \frac{a}{b}

= \frac{16 cos ( x )}{16}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{16}{16} = 1

= cos (x)

Simplify

\frac{- 8}{- 16} : \frac{1}{2}

\frac{- 8}{- 16}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{- b} = \frac{a}{b}

= \frac{8}{16}

Cancel the common factor:

8

= \frac{1}{2}

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

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

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