θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = 2 πn, θ = π + 2 πn

Degrees

θ = 4 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 13 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

2 sin^{2} (θ) - 2 sin (θ) = 0

Solve by substitution

2 sin^{2} (θ) - 2 sin (θ) = 0

Let:

sin (θ) = u

2 u^{2} - 2 u = 0

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

2 u^{2} - 2 u = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

2 u^{2} - 2 u = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 2, b = - 2, c = 0

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 2 ) \pm ( - 2 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 0}{2 \cdot 2}

u_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 2 ) \pm ( - 2 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 0}{2 \cdot 2}

(- 2)^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 0 = 2

(- 2)^{2} - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 0

(- 2)^{2} = 2

(- 2)^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

n

is even

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

= (2)^{2}

Apply radical rule:

a = a^{\frac{1}{2}}

= (2^{\frac{1}{2}})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c}

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

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

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

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

Cancel the common factor:

2

= 1

= 2

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 0 = 0

4 \cdot 2 \cdot 0

Apply rule

0 \cdot a = 0

= 0

= 2 - 0

Subtract the numbers:

2 - 0 = 2

= 2

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

Separate the solutions

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

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

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

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

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

Add similar elements:

2 + 2 = 22

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

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{2 2}{4}

Cancel the common factor:

2

= \frac{2}{2}

u = \frac{- ( - 2 ) - 2}{2 \cdot 2} : 0

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

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

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

Add similar elements:

2 - 2 = 0

= \frac{0}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{0}{4}

Apply rule

\frac{0}{a} = 0, a \neq = 0

= 0

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

u = \frac{2}{2}, u = 0

Substitute back

u = sin (θ)

sin (θ) = \frac{2}{2}, sin (θ) = 0

sin (θ) = \frac{2}{2}, sin (θ) = 0

sin (θ) = \frac{2}{2} : θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn

sin (θ) = \frac{2}{2}
