0=1.5961cos(x)+0.0422cos(2*x)

Solution

0 = 1.5961 \cdot cos (x) + 0.0422 \cdot cos (2 \cdot x)

Solution

x = 1.54439 \dots + 2 πn, x = 2 π - 1.54439 \dots + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 88.48706 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 271.51293 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

0 = 1.5961 cos (x) + 0.0422 cos (2 x)

Switch sides

1.5961 cos (x) + 0.0422 cos (2 x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

0.0422 cos (2 x) + 1.5961 cos (x)

Use the Double Angle identity:

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

= 0.0422 (2 cos^{2} (x) - 1) + 1.5961 cos (x)

(- 1 + 2 cos^{2} (x)) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 cos (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

(- 1 + 2 cos^{2} (x)) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 cos (x) = 0

Let:

cos (x) = u

(- 1 + 2 u^{2}) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 u = 0

(- 1 + 2 u^{2}) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 u = 0 : u = \frac{- 1.5961 + 2.56178193}{0.1688}, u = \frac{- 1.5961 - 2.56178193}{0.1688}

(- 1 + 2 u^{2}) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 u = 0

Expand

(- 1 + 2 u^{2}) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 u : - 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2} + 1.5961 u

(- 1 + 2 u^{2}) \cdot 0.0422 + 1.5961 u

= 0.0422 (- 1 + 2 u^{2}) + 1.5961 u

Expand

0.0422 (- 1 + 2 u^{2}) : - 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2}

0.0422 (- 1 + 2 u^{2})

Apply the distributive law:

a (b + c) = ab + a c

a = 0.0422, b = - 1, c = 2 u^{2}

= 0.0422 (- 1) + 0.0422 \cdot 2 u^{2}

Apply minus-plus rules

+ (- a) = - a

= - 1 \cdot 0.0422 + 2 \cdot 0.0422 u^{2}

Simplify

- 1 \cdot 0.0422 + 2 \cdot 0.0422 u^{2} : - 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2}

- 1 \cdot 0.0422 + 2 \cdot 0.0422 u^{2}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 0.0422 = 0.0422

= - 0.0422 + 2 \cdot 0.0422 u^{2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 0.0422 = 0.0844

= - 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2}

= - 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2}

= - 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2} + 1.5961 u

- 0.0422 + 0.0844 u^{2} + 1.5961 u = 0

Write in the standard form

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

0.0844 u^{2} + 1.5961 u - 0.0422 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

0.0844 u^{2} + 1.5961 u - 0.0422 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 0.0844, b = 1.5961, c = - 0.0422

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- 1.5961 \pm 1.596 1 ^{2} - 4 \cdot 0.0844 ( - 0.0422 )}{2 \cdot 0.0844}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- 1.5961 \pm 1.596 1 ^{2} - 4 \cdot 0.0844 ( - 0.0422 )}{2 \cdot 0.0844}

1.596 1^{2} - 4 \cdot 0.0844 (- 0.0422) = 2.56178193

1.596 1^{2} - 4 \cdot 0.0844 (- 0.0422)

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= 1.596 1^{2} + 4 \cdot 0.0844 \cdot 0.0422

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 0.0844 \cdot 0.0422 = 0.01424672

= 1.596 1^{2} + 0.01424672

1.596 1^{2} = 2.54753521

= 2.54753521 + 0.01424672

Add the numbers:

2.54753521 + 0.01424672 = 2.56178193

= 2.56178193
