2cos(1/2 x)-sqrt(3)=0

Solution

2 cos (\frac{1}{2} x) - 3 = 0

Solution

x = \frac{π}{3} + 4 πn, x = \frac{11 π}{3} + 4 πn

Degrees

x = 6 0^{\circ} + 72 0^{\circ} n, x = 66 0^{\circ} + 72 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

2 cos (\frac{1}{2} x) - 3 = 0

Move

3

to the right side

2 cos (\frac{1}{2} x) - 3 = 0

Add

3

to both sides

2 cos (\frac{1}{2} x) - 3 + 3 = 0 + 3

Simplify

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

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

Divide both sides by

2

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

Divide both sides by

2

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

Simplify

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

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