sin(3θ)cos(θ)-cos(3θ)sin(θ)=(sqrt(3))/2

Solution

sin (3 θ) cos (θ) - cos (3 θ) sin (θ) = \frac{3}{2}

Solution

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn, θ = \frac{π}{3} + πn

Degrees

θ = 3 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, θ = 6 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

sin (3 θ) cos (θ) - cos (3 θ) sin (θ) = \frac{3}{2}

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (3 θ) cos (θ) - cos (3 θ) sin (θ)

Use the Angle Difference identity:

sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t) = sin (s - t)

= sin (3 θ - θ)

sin (3 θ - θ) = \frac{3}{2}

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

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

Solve

3 θ - θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

3 θ - θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn

Add similar elements:

3 θ - θ = 2 θ

2 θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

= \frac{π}{6}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{π}{6} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{6} + πn

Solve

3 θ - θ = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn : θ = \frac{π}{3} + πn

3 θ - θ = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn

Add similar elements:
