Negative factors of

2 : - 1, - 2

Multiply the factors by

- 1

to get the negative factors

- 1, - 2

For every two factors such that

u * v = - 2,

check if

u + v = - 1

Check

u = 1, v = - 2 : u * v = - 2, u + v = - 1 \Rightarrow

TrueCheck

False

u = 1, v = - 2

Group into

(a x^{2} + ux) + (vx + c)

(2 u^{2} + u) + (- 2 u - 1)

= (2 u^{2} + u) + (- 2 u - 1)

Factor out

u

from

2 u^{2} + u : u (2 u + 1)

2 u^{2} + u

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b + c} = a^{b} a^{c}

u^{2} = uu

= 2 uu + u

Factor out common term

u

= u (2 u + 1)

Factor out

- 1

from

- 2 u - 1 : - (2 u + 1)

- 2 u - 1

Factor out common term

Identify the intervals that satisfy the required condition:

> 0

u < - \frac{1}{2} or u > 1

u < - \frac{1}{2} or u > 1

u < - \frac{1}{2} or u > 1

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) < - \frac{1}{2} or sin (x) > 1

sin (x) < - \frac{1}{2} : - \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn < x < - \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn

sin (x) < - \frac{1}{2}

For

sin (x) < a

, if

- 1 < a \leq 1

then

- π - arcsin (a) + 2 πn < x < arcsin (a) + 2 πn

- π - arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn < x < arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) + 2 πn

Simplify

- π - arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) : - \frac{5 π}{6}

- π - arcsin (- \frac{1}{2})

arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) = - \frac{π}{6}

arcsin (- \frac{1}{2})

Use the following property:

arcsin (- x) = - arcsin (x)

arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) = - arcsin (\frac{1}{2})

= - arcsin (\frac{1}{2})

Use the following trivial identity:

arcsin (\frac{1}{2}) = \frac{π}{6}

arcsin (\frac{1}{2})

x 0 \frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{2} \frac{3}{2} 1 arcsin (x) 0 \frac{π}{6} \frac{π}{4} \frac{π}{3} \frac{π}{2} arcsin (x) 0^{\circ} 3 0^{\circ} 4 5^{\circ} 6 0^{\circ} 9 0^{\circ}

= - \frac{π}{6}

= - π - (- \frac{π}{6})

Simplify

- π - (- \frac{π}{6})

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= - π + \frac{π}{6}

Convert element to fraction:

π = \frac{π 6}{6}

= - \frac{π 6}{6} + \frac{π}{6}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{- π 6 + π}{6}

Add similar elements:

- 6 π + π = - 5 π

= \frac{- 5 π}{6}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{5 π}{6}

= - \frac{5 π}{6}

Simplify

arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) : - \frac{π}{6}

arcsin (- \frac{1}{2})

Use the following property:

arcsin (- x) = - arcsin (x)

arcsin (- \frac{1}{2}) = - arcsin (\frac{1}{2})
