sin(x)-4sin^3(x)=0

Solution

sin (x) - 4 sin^{3} (x) = 0

Solution

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn, x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn, x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn, x = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, x = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 21 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 33 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 3 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 15 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

sin (x) - 4 sin^{3} (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

sin (x) - 4 sin^{3} (x) = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

u - 4 u^{3} = 0

u - 4 u^{3} = 0 : u = 0, u = - \frac{1}{2}, u = \frac{1}{2}

u - 4 u^{3} = 0

Factor

u - 4 u^{3} : - u (2 u + 1) (2 u - 1)

u - 4 u^{3}

Factor out common term

- u : - u (4 u^{2} - 1)

- 4 u^{3} + u

Apply exponent rule:

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

u^{3} = u^{2} u

= - 4 u^{2} u + u

Factor out common term

- u

= - u (4 u^{2} - 1)

= - u (4 u^{2} - 1)

Factor

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

4 u^{2} - 1

Rewrite

4 u^{2} - 1

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

4 u^{2} - 1

Rewrite

4

2^{2}

= 2^{2} u^{2} - 1

Rewrite

1

1^{2}

= 2^{2} u^{2} - 1^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{m} b^{m} = (ab)^{m}

2^{2} u^{2} = (2 u)^{2}

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

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

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

x^{2} - y^{2} = (x + y) (x - y)

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

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

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

- u (2 u + 1) (2 u - 1) = 0

Using the Zero Factor Principle:

ab = 0

then

a = 0

b = 0

u = 0 or 2 u + 1 = 0 or 2 u - 1 = 0

Solve

2 u + 1 = 0 : u = - \frac{1}{2}

2 u + 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

2 u + 1 = 0

Subtract

1

from both sides

2 u + 1 - 1 = 0 - 1

Simplify

2 u = - 1

2 u = - 1

Divide both sides by

2

2 u = - 1

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 u}{2} = \frac{- 1}{2}

Simplify

u = - \frac{1}{2}

u = - \frac{1}{2}

Solve

2 u - 1 = 0 : u = \frac{1}{2}

2 u - 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

2 u - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

2 u - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

2 u = 1

2 u = 1

Divide both sides by

2

2 u = 1

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 u}{2} = \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

u = \frac{1}{2}

u = \frac{1}{2}

The solutions are

u = 0, u = - \frac{1}{2}, u = \frac{1}{2}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 0, sin (x) = - \frac{1}{2}, sin (x) = \frac{1}{2}

sin (x) = 0, sin (x) = - \frac{1}{2}, sin (x) = \frac{1}{2}

sin (x) = 0 : x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

sin (x) = 0
