1-1/(cos(x))< 1/2*10^{-2}

Solution

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} < \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

Solution

- \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn < x < \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn

Interval Notation

(- \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn, \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn)

Decimal Notation

- 1.57079 \dots + 2 πn < x < 1.57079 \dots + 2 πn

Solution steps

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} < \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

Rewrite in standard form

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} < \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

Subtract

\frac{1}{2} 1 0^{- 2}

from both sides

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2} < \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

Simplify

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2} < \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

Simplify

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2} : 1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{200}

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2} = \frac{1}{200}

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 1 0^{- 2}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

1 0^{- 2} = \frac{1}{1 0 ^{2}}

= \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{1 0 ^{2}}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{1 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 1 0 ^{2}}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 1 = 1

= \frac{1}{1 0 ^{2} \cdot 2}

2 \cdot 1 0^{2} = 200

2 \cdot 1 0^{2}

1 0^{2} = 100

= 2 \cdot 100

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 100 = 200

= 200

= \frac{1}{200}

= 1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{200}

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{200} < 0

Simplify

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{200} : \frac{199 cos ( x ) - 200}{200 cos ( x )}

1 - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{200}

Convert element to fraction:

1 = \frac{1}{1}

= \frac{1}{1} - \frac{1}{cos ( x )} - \frac{1}{200}

25

divides by

525 = 5 \cdot 5

= 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 5 \cdot 5

Adjust Fractions based on the LCM

Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its

corresponding denominator to turn it into the LCM

200 cos (x)

For

\frac{1}{1} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

200 cos (x)

\frac{1}{1} = \frac{1 \cdot 200 cos ( x )}{1 \cdot 200 cos ( x )} = \frac{200 cos ( x )}{200 cos ( x )}

For

\frac{1}{cos ( x )} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

200

\frac{1}{cos ( x )} = \frac{1 \cdot 200}{cos ( x ) \cdot 200} = \frac{200}{200 cos ( x )}

For

\frac{1}{200} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

cos (x)

\frac{1}{200} = \frac{1 \cdot cos ( x )}{200 cos ( x )} = \frac{cos ( x )}{200 cos ( x )}

= \frac{200 cos ( x )}{200 cos ( x )} - \frac{200}{200 cos ( x )} - \frac{cos ( x )}{200 cos ( x )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{200 cos ( x ) - 200 - cos ( x )}{200 cos ( x )}

200 cos (x) - 200 - cos (x) = 199 cos (x) - 200

200 cos (x) - 200 - cos (x)

Group like terms

= 200 cos (x) - cos (x) - 200

Add similar elements:

200 cos (x) - cos (x) = 199 cos (x)

= 199 cos (x) - 200

= \frac{199 cos ( x ) - 200}{200 cos ( x )}

\frac{199 cos ( x ) - 200}{200 cos ( x )} < 0

Multiply both sides by

200

\frac{200 ( 199 cos ( x ) - 200 )}{200 cos ( x )} < 0 \cdot 200

Simplify

\frac{199 cos ( x ) - 200}{cos ( x )} < 0

\frac{199 cos ( x ) - 200}{cos ( x )} < 0
