To solve this trigonometric equation, we first want to simplify and rewrite it in terms of either sine or cosine.
Given: Cos(2x) - 3sin(x)cos(x) + sin(2x) = 0
Using trigonometric identities:Cos(2x) = 1 - 2sin^2(x)Sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
We can rewrite the equation as:1 - 2sin^2(x) - 3sin(x)cos(x) + 2sin(x)cos(x) = 0
Now, we can combine like terms and simplify:1 - 2sin^2(x) - sin(x)cos(x) = 0
Next, we can use the double angle formula for sine and cosine functions:Sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
Substitute this back into the equation:1 - 2sin^2(x) - sin(2x) = 0
Now, let u = sin(x), then we have:1 - 2u^2 - 2u = 0
Rearrange the equation:2u^2 + 2u - 1 = 0
Factor the quadratic equation:(2u - 1)(u + 1) = 0
Now, solve for u:2u - 1 = 02u = 1u = 1/2
u + 1 = 0u = -1
Now substitute back u = sin(x):sin(x) = 1/2x = π/6 + 2nπ , 11π/6 + 2nπ, n ∈ Z
sin(x) = -1x = 3π/2 + 2nπ, n ∈ Z
Therefore, the solutions to the trigonometric equation are x = π/6, 11π/6, 3π/2 and any integer times 2π.
