Please help here☻ Trigo question
f(theta)=g(theta)
@mani, do you know how to solve this?
i just gave you the solution....
So the equation is fx = gx?
yes. 2sin(theta)-1 - 3cos(theta)-2 =0
Then, 2sin(theta) - 3cos(theta)-3 =0 Not sure what the next step is...
If you actually want to solve this, you could use the substitutions \[ sin(x)=\frac{2 tan(x/2)}{1+tan^2(x/2)} \] and \[ cos(x)=\frac{1-tan^2(x/2)}{1+tan^2(x/2)} \] also, we can see by inspection that pi (and 2n pi + pi) is one of the solutions.
But it requires us to find the equation...
@Callisto you found the answer 2sin(theta) - 3cos(theta)-3 =0 the 2 curves equal each other at their intersection points. I just thought you were curious as to how to actually find the intersection points (not required for this problem).
Sorry, because someone has different answer as that. http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/4f880554e4b0505bf0874040
