d=(sin^4(x)-cos^2(x)+5)/(4*cos^2(x))

Solution

d = \frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 \cdot cos ^{2} ( x )}

Solution

x = arcsin \frac{- 1 - 4 d + 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = π + arcsin - \frac{- 1 - 4 d + 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = arcsin - \frac{- 1 - 4 d + 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = π + arcsin \frac{- 1 - 4 d + 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = arcsin \frac{- 1 - 4 d - 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = π + arcsin - \frac{- 1 - 4 d - 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = arcsin - \frac{- 1 - 4 d - 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn, x = π + arcsin \frac{- 1 - 4 d - 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2} + 2 πn

Solution steps

d = \frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )}

Switch sides

\frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )} = d

Subtract

d

from both sides

\frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )} - d = 0

Simplify

\frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )} - d : \frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5 - 4 d cos ^{2} ( x )}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )}

\frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )} - d

Convert element to fraction:

d = \frac{d 4 cos ^{2} ( x )}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )}

= \frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )} - \frac{d \cdot 4 cos ^{2} ( x )}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5 - d \cdot 4 cos ^{2} ( x )}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )}

\frac{sin ^{4} ( x ) - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 5 - 4 d cos ^{2} ( x )}{4 cos ^{2} ( x )} = 0

\frac{f ( x )}{g ( x )} = 0 \Rightarrow f (x) = 0

sin^{4} (x) - cos^{2} (x) + 5 - 4 d cos^{2} (x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

5 - cos^{2} (x) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 cos^{2} (x) d

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

= 5 - (1 - sin^{2} (x)) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) d

Simplify

5 - (1 - sin^{2} (x)) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) d : sin^{4} (x) + sin^{2} (x) + 4 d sin^{2} (x) + 4 - 4 d

5 - (1 - sin^{2} (x)) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) d

= 5 - (1 - sin^{2} (x)) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 d (1 - sin^{2} (x))

- (1 - sin^{2} (x)) : - 1 + sin^{2} (x)

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

Distribute parentheses

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

Apply minus-plus rules

- (- a) = a, - (a) = - a

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

= 5 - 1 + sin^{2} (x) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 (1 - sin^{2} (x)) d

Expand

- 4 d (1 - sin^{2} (x)) : - 4 d + 4 d sin^{2} (x)

- 4 d (1 - sin^{2} (x))

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = - 4 d, b = 1, c = sin^{2} (x)

= - 4 d \cdot 1 - (- 4 d) sin^{2} (x)

Apply minus-plus rules

- (- a) = a

= - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot d + 4 d sin^{2} (x)

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 1 = 4

= - 4 d + 4 d sin^{2} (x)

= 5 - 1 + sin^{2} (x) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 d + 4 d sin^{2} (x)

Subtract the numbers:

5 - 1 = 4

= sin^{4} (x) + sin^{2} (x) + 4 d sin^{2} (x) + 4 - 4 d

= sin^{4} (x) + sin^{2} (x) + 4 d sin^{2} (x) + 4 - 4 d

4 + sin^{2} (x) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 d + 4 sin^{2} (x) d = 0

Solve by substitution

4 + sin^{2} (x) + sin^{4} (x) - 4 d + 4 sin^{2} (x) d = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

4 + u^{2} + u^{4} - 4 d + 4 u^{2} d = 0

4 + u^{2} + u^{4} - 4 d + 4 u^{2} d = 0 : u = \frac{- 1 - 4 d + 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2}, u = - \frac{- 1 - 4 d + 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2}, u = \frac{- 1 - 4 d - 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2}, u = - \frac{- 1 - 4 d - 16 d ^{2} + 24 d - 15}{2}

4 + u^{2} + u^{4} - 4 d + 4 u^{2} d = 0

Write in the standard form

a_{n} x^{n} + \dots + a_{1} x + d = 0

u^{4} + (1 + 4 d) u^{2} + 4 - 4 d = 0

Rewrite the equation with

v = u^{2}

and

v^{2} = u^{4}

v^{2} + (1 + 4 d) v + 4 - 4 d = 0

v^{2} + (1 + 4 d) v + 4 - 4 d = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

v^{2} + (1 + 4 d) v + 4 - 4 d = 0

= 1 + 8 d + 16 d^{2}

= 1 + 8 d + 16 d^{2} - 4 (4 - 4 d)

Expand

- 4 (4 - 4 d) : - 16 + 16 d
