Solution steps

2 + 3 sin (x) - cos (2 x) < 0

Use the following identity:

cos (2 x) = 1 - 2 sin^{2} (x)

For every two factors such that

u * v = 2,

check if

u + v = 3

Check

u = 1, v = 2 : u * v = 2, u + v = 3 \Rightarrow

True

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

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

u

= u (2 u + 1)

= u (2 u + 1) + (2 u + 1)
