-6sin(x)+3sin(2x)=0

Solution

- 6 sin (x) + 3 sin (2 x) = 0

Solution

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

- 6 sin (x) + 3 sin (2 x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

3 sin (2 x) - 6 sin (x)

Use the Double Angle identity:

sin (2 x) = 2 sin (x) cos (x)

= 3 \cdot 2 sin (x) cos (x) - 6 sin (x)

Simplify

= 6 sin (x) cos (x) - 6 sin (x)

- 6 sin (x) + 6 cos (x) sin (x) = 0

Factor

- 6 sin (x) + 6 cos (x) sin (x) : 6 sin (x) (cos (x) - 1)

- 6 sin (x) + 6 cos (x) sin (x)

Factor out common term

6 sin (x)

= 6 sin (x) (- 1 + cos (x))

6 sin (x) (cos (x) - 1) = 0

Solving each part separately

sin (x) = 0 or cos (x) - 1 = 0

sin (x) = 0 : x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

sin (x) = 0

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

Solve

x = 0 + 2 πn : x = 2 πn

x = 0 + 2 πn

0 + 2 πn = 2 πn

x = 2 πn

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

cos (x) - 1 = 0 : x = 2 πn

cos (x) - 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

cos (x) - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

cos (x) - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

cos (x) = 1

cos (x) = 1

x = 0 + 2 πn

0 + 2 πn = 2 πn

x = 2 πn

x = 2 πn

Combine all the solutions

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn
