2sin^2(x)-3sin(x)+1=0,0<= x<= 2pi

Solution

2 sin^{2} (x) - 3 sin (x) + 1 = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Solution

x = \frac{π}{2}, x = \frac{π}{6}, x = \frac{5 π}{6}

Degrees

x = 9 0^{\circ}, x = 3 0^{\circ}, x = 15 0^{\circ}

Solution steps

2 sin^{2} (x) - 3 sin (x) + 1 = 0, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π

Solve by substitution

2 sin^{2} (x) - 3 sin (x) + 1 = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

2 u^{2} - 3 u + 1 = 0

2 u^{2} - 3 u + 1 = 0 : u = 1, u = \frac{1}{2}

2 u^{2} - 3 u + 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

2 u^{2} - 3 u + 1 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 2, b = - 3, c = 1

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) \pm ( - 3 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 2}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) \pm ( - 3 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 2}

(- 3)^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 1

(- 3)^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

n

is even

(- 3)^{2} = 3^{2}

= 3^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 8

= 3^{2} - 8

3^{2} = 9

= 9 - 8

Subtract the numbers:

9 - 8 = 1

= 1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= 1

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) \pm 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Separate the solutions

u_{1} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 2}, u_{2} = \frac{- ( - 3 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 2}

u = \frac{- ( - 3 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 2} : 1

\frac{- ( - 3 ) + 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{3 + 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Add the numbers:

3 + 1 = 4

= \frac{4}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{4}{4}

Apply rule

\frac{a}{a} = 1

= 1

u = \frac{- ( - 3 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 2} : \frac{1}{2}

\frac{- ( - 3 ) - 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{3 - 1}{2 \cdot 2}

Subtract the numbers:

3 - 1 = 2

= \frac{2}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{2}{4}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{1}{2}

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = 1, u = \frac{1}{2}

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = \frac{1}{2}

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = \frac{1}{2}

sin (x) = 1, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π : x = \frac{π}{2}

sin (x) = 1, 0 \leq x \leq 2 π
