2 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn, 2 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

2 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn, 2 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn : x = \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

2 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} : x

\frac{2 x}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2} : \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{2} = \frac{7 π}{12}

\frac{\frac{7 π}{6}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{7 π}{6 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

6 \cdot 2 = 12

= \frac{7 π}{12}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

x = \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

x = \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

x = \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn : x = \frac{11 π}{12} + πn

2 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by
