2sin^2(θ)-cos(2θ)=1

Solution

2 sin^{2} (θ) - cos (2 θ) = 1

Solution

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

Degrees

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

Solution steps

2 sin^{2} (θ) - cos (2 θ) = 1

Subtract

1

from both sides

2 sin^{2} (θ) - cos (2 θ) - 1 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 1 - cos (2 θ) + 2 sin^{2} (θ)

Use the Double Angle identity:

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

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

= - cos (2 θ) - cos (2 θ)

Simplify

= - 2 cos (2 θ)

- 2 cos (2 θ) = 0

Divide both sides by

- 2

- 2 cos (2 θ) = 0

Divide both sides by

- 2

\frac{- 2 cos ( 2 θ )}{- 2} = \frac{0}{- 2}

Simplify

cos (2 θ) = 0

cos (2 θ) = 0

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{π}{4} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{4} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{4} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{4} + πn

Solve

2 θ = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + πn

2 θ = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 θ = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn
