2sin(4x)=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sin(4x)=1\] \[4x=\pi/6+2*\pi*k\] \[x=\frac{\pi}{24}+\frac{\pi*k}{2}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first line shoule be 2sin(4x)=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let's wait for polpak - and see if I messed up :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm pretty sure there's only 2 angles that correspond to positive 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry forgot to divide by 2n(pi) by 4 also.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\begin{array}{lrcl} & 2\sin(4x) &= &1\\ \implies & sin(4x) & = &\frac{1}{2}\\ \implies & 4x & \in & \{\frac{\pi}{6} + 2n\pi, \frac{5\pi}{6}+ 2n\pi\}\\ \implies & x & \in &\{\frac{\pi}{24} + \frac{n\pi}{2}, \frac{5\pi}{24} + \frac{n\pi}{2}\}\\ \implies & x & \in &\{\frac{(12n + 1)\pi}{24}, \frac{(12n + 5)\pi}{24} \}\\ \end{array}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Pretty sure that's right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes that looks right to me. I was missing the second solution set (with the 5pi).
