cos(2x)cos(x) - sin(2x)sin(x) = 0
cos(2x) = 2cos^2(x) - 1sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
Substitute these values:
(2cos^2(x) - 1)cos(x) - 2sin(x)cos(x)sin(x) = 02cos^3(x) - cos(x) - 2sin(x)cos(x)sin(x) = 02cos^3(x) - cos(x) - sin(2x)sin(x) = 02cos^3(x) - cos(x) - (2sin(x)cos(x))sin(x) = 02cos^3(x) - cos(x) - 2sin^2(x)cos(x) = 0
Now, we have a cubic equation in terms of cos(x). If we assume cos(x) = y, the equation becomes:
2y^3 - y - 2(1 - y^2)y = 02y^3 - y - 2y + 2y^3 = 04y^3 - 3y = 0y(4y^2 - 3) = 0y = 0 or 4y^2 - 3 = 0
If y = 0, then cos(x) = 0, which implies x = π/2 + πk, where k is an integer.
If 4y^2 - 3 = 0:
4y^2 = 3y^2 = 3/4y = ±sqrt(3)/2
This implies that cos(x) = ±sqrt(3)/2, which occurs when x = π/6 + 2πk or x = 5π/6 + 2πk, where k is an integer.
Therefore, the solutions to the equation cos(2x)cos(x) - sin(2x)sin(x) = 0 are:x = π/2 + πk, π/6 + 2πk, 5π/6 + 2πk.
cos(2x)cos(x) - sin(2x)sin(x) = 0
cos(2x) = 2cos^2(x) - 1
sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
Substitute these values:
(2cos^2(x) - 1)cos(x) - 2sin(x)cos(x)sin(x) = 0
2cos^3(x) - cos(x) - 2sin(x)cos(x)sin(x) = 0
2cos^3(x) - cos(x) - sin(2x)sin(x) = 0
2cos^3(x) - cos(x) - (2sin(x)cos(x))sin(x) = 0
2cos^3(x) - cos(x) - 2sin^2(x)cos(x) = 0
Now, we have a cubic equation in terms of cos(x). If we assume cos(x) = y, the equation becomes:
2y^3 - y - 2(1 - y^2)y = 0
2y^3 - y - 2y + 2y^3 = 0
4y^3 - 3y = 0
y(4y^2 - 3) = 0
y = 0 or 4y^2 - 3 = 0
If y = 0, then cos(x) = 0, which implies x = π/2 + πk, where k is an integer.
If 4y^2 - 3 = 0:
4y^2 = 3
y^2 = 3/4
y = ±sqrt(3)/2
This implies that cos(x) = ±sqrt(3)/2, which occurs when x = π/6 + 2πk or x = 5π/6 + 2πk, where k is an integer.
Therefore, the solutions to the equation cos(2x)cos(x) - sin(2x)sin(x) = 0 are:
x = π/2 + πk, π/6 + 2πk, 5π/6 + 2πk.
