x = π/4 + kπ, 3π/4 + kπ, k belonging to Z
y = 2 or y = -1/2
Since sinx can only be between -1 and 1, sinx can only be -1/2.Therefore, sinx = -1/2 implies:
x = 7π/6 + 2kπ, 11π/6 + 2kπ, k belonging to Z
Solving the quadratic equation, we get:
cosx = 1/2 or cosx = -3
The solutions for cosx = 1/2 are:
x = π/3 + 2kπ or x = 5π/3 + 2kπ
The solution for cosx = -3 has no real solutions, as cosine function varies between -1 and 1.
This can be simplified to tg^2(x) - 1 = 0
Tangent is a periodic function with period π so solutions for x will be:
x = π/4 + kπ, 3π/4 + kπ, k belonging to Z
2sin^2x-3sinx-2=0Let y = sinx
Now the equation becomes:
2y^2 - 3y - 2 = 0
Solving this quadratic equation by factorization, we get:
y = 2 or y = -1/2
Since sinx can only be between -1 and 1, sinx can only be -1/2.
Therefore, sinx = -1/2 implies:
x = 7π/6 + 2kπ, 11π/6 + 2kπ, k belonging to Z
2cos^2x+cosx-6=0This is a quadratic equation in terms of cosx:
2cos^2(x) + cosx - 6 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation, we get:
cosx = 1/2 or cosx = -3
The solutions for cosx = 1/2 are:
x = π/3 + 2kπ or x = 5π/3 + 2kπ
The solution for cosx = -3 has no real solutions, as cosine function varies between -1 and 1.
