Something isn't right with the way I've done this question. see attached file 6 sin (x) = 1 + 9 sin (x) solve over domain 0 x 2pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What attached file?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1+9sin(x) -6sin(x) = 0 1 + 3sin(x) = 0 sin(x) = \(\sf \frac{1}{3}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

therefore, principal value of x = arcsin(1/3) = 19.47º

OpenStudy (anonymous):

negative or postive? Do I draw it in the first quadrant?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

if we simplify that equation, we get: \(3 \sin x=-1\) therefore: \[\sin x = - \frac{1}{3}\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

again we have this drawing: |dw:1447353320315:dw|
