tan(x)cos(x)sin(x)-1=0

Solution

tan (x) cos (x) sin (x) - 1 = 0

Solution

No Solution for x \in R

Solution steps

tan (x) cos (x) sin (x) - 1 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 1 + cos (x) sin (x) tan (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

tan (x) = \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= - 1 + cos (x) sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

cos (x) sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = sin^{2} (x)

cos (x) sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{sin ( x ) cos ( x ) sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Cancel the common factor:

cos (x)

= sin (x) sin (x)

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

sin (x) sin (x) = sin^{1 + 1} (x)

= sin^{1 + 1} (x)

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= sin^{2} (x)

= - 1 + sin^{2} (x)

- 1 + sin^{2} (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

- 1 + sin^{2} (x) = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

- 1 + u^{2} = 0

- 1 + u^{2} = 0 : u = 1, u = - 1

- 1 + u^{2} = 0

Move

1

to the right side

- 1 + u^{2} = 0

Add

1

to both sides

- 1 + u^{2} + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

u^{2} = 1

u^{2} = 1

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

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

u = 1, u = - 1

1 = 1

1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= 1

- 1 = - 1

- 1

Apply rule

1 = 1

= - 1

u = 1, u = - 1

Substitute back

u = sin (x)

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = - 1

sin (x) = 1, sin (x) = - 1

sin (x) = 1 : x = \frac{π}{2} + 2 πn

sin (x) = 1

x = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn

x = \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn

Combine all the solutions

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

Since the equation is undefined for:

\frac{π}{2} + 2 πn, \frac{3 π}{2} + 2 πn
