Do i need to use double angle formula?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which should i use?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
note that \(\cos 2x=1-2 \sin^2 x\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
noted thanks.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
very well...:)

carry on please /
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well make a quadratic equation in terms of \(\sin x\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i get this 2 sin^2 x + 4 sin x = -1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then i take out common factor is that right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
emm...yeah solve it by quadratic formula or factoring...which one u are comfortable with

My answer are x = 270 degree and 315 degree
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is that correct?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
let me check it...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\(4\sin x = 2 \cos 2x - 3 \) -----> \(4\sin x+4 \sin^2 x = -1\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
or \( (2 \sin x+1)^2=0 \) and it gives \(\sin x=-1/2 \)
