2cos(x/2)+sqrt(3)=0

Solution

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) + 3 = 0

Solution

x = \frac{5 π}{3} + 4 πn, x = \frac{7 π}{3} + 4 πn

Degrees

x = 30 0^{\circ} + 72 0^{\circ} n, x = 42 0^{\circ} + 72 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) + 3 = 0

Move

3

to the right side

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) + 3 = 0

Subtract

3

from both sides

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) + 3 - 3 = 0 - 3

Simplify

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) = - 3

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) = - 3

Divide both sides by

2

2 cos (\frac{x}{2}) = - 3

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 cos ( \frac{x}{2} )}{2} = \frac{- 3}{2}

Simplify

cos (\frac{x}{2}) = - \frac{3}{2}

cos (\frac{x}{2}) = - \frac{3}{2}
