sin(θ)=-1/(sqrt(2))

sin (θ) = - \frac{1}{2}

θ = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Solution steps

sin (θ) = - \frac{1}{2}

Simplify

- \frac{1}{2} : - \frac{2}{2}

- \frac{1}{2}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{2}{2}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2 2}

1 \cdot 2 = 2

22 = 2

22

Apply radical rule:

a a = a

22 = 2

= 2

= - \frac{2}{2}

sin (θ) = - \frac{2}{2}

θ = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

θ = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

cos (2 x) - 3 sin (x) - 2 = 0

tan (θ) = - 2 sin (θ)

5 cos (x) = 0

2 sin (x) = cos (2 x)

cos (x) = - \frac{4}{5}
