cos(3x)= 1/(sqrt(2))

Solution

cos (3 x) = \frac{1}{2}

Solution

x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}, x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Radians

x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 π}{3} n, x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 π}{3} n

Solution steps

cos (3 x) = \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

\frac{1}{2} : \frac{2}{2}

\frac{1}{2}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{2}{2}

= \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2 2}

1 \cdot 2 = 2

22 = 2

3 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, 3 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

3 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, 3 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Solve

3 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn : x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

3 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{\frac{π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{\frac{π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 x}{3} : x

\frac{3 x}{3}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{3}{3} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3} : \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{3} = \frac{π}{12}

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{π}{4 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 3 = 12

= \frac{π}{12}

= \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Solve

3 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn : x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

3 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

3

3 x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 x}{3} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 x}{3} : x

\frac{3 x}{3}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{3}{3} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3} : \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{3} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{3} = \frac{7 π}{12}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{4}}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{7 π}{4 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 3 = 12

= \frac{7 π}{12}

= \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}

x = \frac{π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}, x = \frac{7 π}{12} + \frac{2 πn}{3}
