still trigonometric equations ._.
Find all solutions to the equation. 7 sin2x - 14 sin x + 2 = -5
@Luigi0210 yay your on! will you help?
Start by setting it equal to 0.
7 sin2x - 14 sin x -3 = 0
Actually, add 5.. remember you do the opposite operation. So \(7sin^2x-14sinx+7=0\), isn't that easier? Now factor~
7(sin^2x-2sinx+1) 7(sinx-1)(sinx-1)
Nice job :) Don't forget to have that =0 at the end, or else it's just a random expression and not an equation. And right away, you can divide that constant 7 away.
aww my ketty dosent show up :c and oh okay and i already did get rid of the seven
I'm sorry >.< But yea, that leaves us with \((sinx-1)^2=0\) Can you finish it?
isnt that it .-.
Nope, solve for x
i have no idea how .-.
Take the square root of both sides \(sinx-1=\sqrt{0}\) then get sinxx= by itself \(sinx=1\), now where in the unit circle does \(sinx=1\)?
at the - sqrt of 0?
Where did \(-\sqrt{0}\) come from? \(\color{red}{ლ(゚д゚ლ) }\)
well you said sinx−1=√ 0 is the same as sinx=1 so i asumed you just added the 1 to each side and subtracted √ 0
Yes, but 0 doesn't add any value so it just disappears. Do you know your unit circle?
Here's a good one http://ibmathematics.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/unitcircle.gif
btw. for trig the coordinate points are \((cosx, sinx)\) And y u be leavin me? \(\large \color{#00FFCC}{ლ(゚д゚ლ) }\)
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ my computer shut down, and holy crap what is THAT
That would be the unit circle my dear~ You haven't seen it yet?
lanope.... you told me about the whole rotating counter clockwise and i already knew that a circle was 360degrees
Yes, and \(360^○=2\pi\)
i get that they are fractions, but where are the points coming from?
30-60-90 and -45-45-90 triangles..

Thanks xD And sorry, I'm not good at teaching :( @lovelyharmonics
i think you are c: you are one out of only three people i ask for help on here XD
Trying to be flattery @lovelyharmonics ?? :)
say wat? 【・ヘ・?】
Hehehehe...
Thanks.. and you can make that 2 soon because I'm gone later :P Saw what? o.O
nonono you not your an abasitor or administer person thus you must stay
LOL
I'm just a regular user like you and most everyone else >.<
naw on your profile thats not what is said
oooooooooooooooooo
Wait, why are we talking about this on a question form? >.<
wait so how do i figure out where it goes on the circle?
IDK
Look for where sinx=1
90degrees?
Yup, I'm not exactly sure how to write it in radian terms tho..
To convert degree into radians just multiply it by pi/180..
so its pie/2
It is one solution only..
^I know that, but there is no interval.. I mean like how would you write it with no interval.. is it something like \(\frac{\pi}{2}+2\pi n\)?
General Solution??
YES, general solution.
Let us go there now..
\[\sin(x) = \sin(y) \implies \color{red}{x = n \pi + (-1)^n y}\]
