Find All Solutions of the Equation Express the Solutions in Radians
The equations containing trigonometric functions of unknown angles are known as trigonometric equations. A solution of trigonometric equation is the value of unknown angle that satisfies the equation.
General Solution :
The solution of a trigonometric equation giving all the admissible values obtained with the help of periodicity of a trigonometric function is called the general solution of the equation.
Trigonometric equation sin θ = 0 cos θ = 0 tan θ = 0 sin θ = sinα, where α ∈ [−π/2, π/2] cos θ = cos α, where α ∈ [0,π] tan θ = tanα, where α ∈ (−π/2, π/2) |
General solution θ = nπ; n ∈ Z θ = (2n + 1) π/2; n ∈ Z θ = nπ; n ∈ Z θ = nπ + (−1)n α, n ∈ Z θ = 2nπ ± α, n ∈ Z θ = nπ + α, n ∈ Z |
Question 1 :
Solve the following equations:
(v) sin 2θ − cos 2θ − sin θ + cos θ = 0
Solution :
sin 2θ − cos 2θ − sin θ + cos θ = 0
sin 2θ − sin θ + cos θ − cos 2θ = 0
Let us use the formula for sin C - sin D and cos C - cos D
sin C - sin D = 2 cos (C + D)/2 sin (C - D)/2
cos C - cos D = 2 sin (C + D)/2 sin (C - D)/2
sin 2θ − sin θ = 2 cos 3θ/2 sin θ/2 -----(1)
cos θ − cos 2θ = 2 sin 3θ/2 sin θ/2 -----(2)
(1) + (2)
= 2 cos 3θ/2 sin θ/2 + 2 sin 3θ/2 sin θ/2
= 2 sin θ/2 [cos 3θ/2 + sin 3θ/2]
2 sin θ/2 = 0 sin θ/2 = 0 θ/2 = nπ θ = 2nπ |
cos 3θ/2 + sin 3θ/2 = 0 cos 3θ/2 = - sin 3θ/2 sin 3θ/2/cos 3θ/2 = -1 tan 3θ/2 = -1 a = - π/4 θ = nπ + a 3θ/2 = nπ - π/4 3θ = 2nπ - π/2 θ = 2nπ/3 - π/6 |
Hence the solution is {2nπ, 2nπ/3 - π/6}.
(vi) sin θ + cos θ = √2
Solution :
sin θ + cos θ = √2
Divide by √2 on both sides
(1/√2) sin θ + (1/√2) cos θ = 1
cos (π/4) cos θ - sin (π/4) sin θ = cos 0
cos (π/4 - θ) = cos 0
θ = 2nπ + a
θ = 2nπ + π/4
θ = (8n + 1)π/4
