if tan(2pi/3)sin(3pi/2-x)=1 what is cos(2x)?

well, try to simplify sin(3pi/2-x) first :)
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
and of course find the value of tan(2pi/3) first :)

Hi!! \(\huge\color{blue}{{Welcome~To~Open~Study}!!!!!!}\)
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
This?\[\text{if }\tan{\frac{2\pi}{3}}\sin{\frac{3\pi}{2-x}}=1\text{ what is}\cos{2x}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

Hm, alright then
OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):
@kittiwitti1 I believe that it is \(\displaystyle \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}2-x\right)\) instead
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
I think so too @kc_kennylau but that is why I asked :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@kc_kennylau you're right sry!
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
xD
\[\text{Well, tangent is also equal to sine divided by cosine:}\tan{\theta}=\frac{\sin{\theta}}{\cos{\theta}}\]

...did everyone else leave ._.

@kittiwitti1 tnx
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
Lol...
Ok. We have two radian values, 2pi/3 and (3pi/2)-x\[\text{What do }\frac{2\pi}{3}\text{ and }\frac{3\pi}{2}\text{ equal in degrees?}\]
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
it means 2π/3=a° find a
what did you get? :)
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
*2pi/3 = a degrees, find a

@kittiwitti1 2pi/3=120
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
^-^
OpenStudy (kittiwitti1):
So now can you solve with the degree values to find x? :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@kittiwitti1 thanks
