sec(x)+sqrt(2)=0

sec (x) + 2 = 0

x = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn, x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 13 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 22 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

sec (x) + 2 = 0

Move

2

to the right side

sec (x) + 2 = 0

Subtract

2

from both sides

sec (x) + 2 - 2 = 0 - 2

Simplify

sec (x) = - 2

sec (x) = - 2
