cot^2(θ)-3csc(θ)=-3

Solution

cot^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) = - 3

Solution

θ = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn

Degrees

θ = 3 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 15 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 9 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

cot^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) = - 3

Subtract

- 3

from both sides

cot^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) + 3 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

3 + cot^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ)

Use the Pythagorean identity:

1 + cot^{2} (x) = csc^{2} (x)

cot^{2} (x) = csc^{2} (x) - 1

= 3 + csc^{2} (θ) - 1 - 3 csc (θ)

Simplify

3 + csc^{2} (θ) - 1 - 3 csc (θ) : csc^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) + 2

3 + csc^{2} (θ) - 1 - 3 csc (θ)

Group like terms

= csc^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) + 3 - 1

Add/Subtract the numbers:

3 - 1 = 2

= csc^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) + 2

= csc^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) + 2

2 + csc^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) = 0

Solve by substitution

2 + csc^{2} (θ) - 3 csc (θ) = 0

Let:

csc (θ) = u

2 + u^{2} - 3 u = 0

2 + u^{2} - 3 u = 0 : u = 2, u = 1

2 + u^{2} - 3 u = 0

Write in the standard form

a x^{2} + b x + c = 0

u^{2} - 3 u + 2 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

u^{2} - 3 u + 2 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 1, b = - 3, c = 2

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) \pm ( - 3 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2}{2 \cdot 1}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) \pm ( - 3 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2}{2 \cdot 1}

(- 3)^{2} - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2 = 1

(- 3)^{2} - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

n

is even

(- 3)^{2} = 3^{2}

= 3^{2} - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 1 \cdot 2 = 8

= 3^{2} - 8

3^{2} = 9

= 9 - 8

Subtract the numbers:

9 - 8 = 1

= 1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= 1

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) \pm 1}{2 \cdot 1}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 1}, u_{2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 1}

u = \frac{- ( - 3 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 1} : 2

\frac{- ( - 3 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 1}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{3 + 1}{2 \cdot 1}

Add the numbers:

3 + 1 = 4

= \frac{4}{2 \cdot 1}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 1 = 2

= \frac{4}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{4}{2} = 2

= 2

u = \frac{- ( - 3 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 1} : 1

\frac{- ( - 3 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 1}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{3 - 1}{2 \cdot 1}

Subtract the numbers:

3 - 1 = 2

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

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 1 = 2

= \frac{2}{2}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{a} = 1

= 1

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = 2, u = 1

Substitute back

u = csc (θ)

csc (θ) = 2, csc (θ) = 1

csc (θ) = 2, csc (θ) = 1

csc (θ) = 2 : θ = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn

csc (θ) = 2
