Name the x-values for which the sine function and the cosine function equal to zero simultaneously in the domain 0°< x < 360°

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

@amistre64 is the work for this one the same as the last question i asked?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

not quite, but its a similar logic; we say that sin(x) and cos(x) are equal to each other for the same value of x in ONLY 2 places ....

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

which two places? and they both have to equal 0?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

so, if sin(x) = 0 and cos(x) = 0 for some x; then the only way that would be possible is if sin(45) = 0 or sin(225)=0. does this work for us?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

yes it works

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

@amistre64 it works, right?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

@undeadknight26 can you help with this one? please?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what is the value of sin(45)?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

0?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what values of sin(x) get us a zero? what values of cos(x) get us a zero? are those values the same values for both sin and cos?

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

well i guess sin(0) and cos(0) would get us 0

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

@amistre64

OpenStudy (amistre64):

cos(0) is not equal to 0, you need to review your course material

OpenStudy (amistre64):

sin(45) is not equal to 0 .... a review may be a good idea

OpenStudy (vera_ewing):

@amistre64 yeah i don't really understand most of this stuff. what does sin(45) equal?
