3sec^2(2x)=4

Solution

3 sec^{2} (2 x) = 4

Solution

x = \frac{π}{12} + πn, x = \frac{11 π}{12} + πn, x = \frac{5 π}{12} + πn, x = \frac{7 π}{12} + πn

Degrees

x = 1 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 16 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 7 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 10 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

3 sec^{2} (2 x) = 4

Solve by substitution

3 sec^{2} (2 x) = 4

Let:

sec (2 x) = u

3 u^{2} = 4

3 u^{2} = 4 : u = \frac{2 3}{3}, u = - \frac{2 3}{3}

3 u^{2} = 4

Divide both sides by

3

3 u^{2} = 4

Divide both sides by

3

\frac{3 u ^{2}}{3} = \frac{4}{3}

Simplify

u^{2} = \frac{4}{3}

u^{2} = \frac{4}{3}

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

x = f (a), - f (a)

u = \frac{4}{3}, u = - \frac{4}{3}

\frac{4}{3} = \frac{2 3}{3}
