14.7 Solving Trig Equations
Find all solutions of for the interval0 < 360. Original equation Solve for 0. Distributive Property Simplify. Divide each side by –1. Factor. Example 7-1a Example:
or Example 7-1a Now use the Zero Product Property. Answer: The solutions are 30°, 150°, and 270°.
Find all solutions of for the interval 0 < 2. Original equation Solve for 0. Factor Example 7-1a Example:
or Answer: The solutions are Example 7-1a Use the Zero Product Property.
Find all solutions of each equation for the given interval. a. b. Answer: Example 7-1b More problems: Answer:
Solve for all values of ifis measured in radians. Original equation Subtract Factor. or Zero Product Property Solve. Example 7-2a Example:
Look at the graph of to find solutions of The solutions are and so on, and so on. Example 7-2a
The only solution in the interval 0 to are andThe period of the sine function is radians. So thesolutions can be written as andwhere k is any integer. Similarly, the solutions for Example 7-2a
Answer: The solutions are and Example 7-2a
