cos(2x)csc^2(x)=2cos(2x)

Solution

cos (2 x) csc^{2} (x) = 2 cos (2 x)

Solution

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

Degrees

x = 4 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 13 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

cos (2 x) csc^{2} (x) = 2 cos (2 x)

Subtract

2 cos (2 x)

from both sides

csc^{2} (x) cos (2 x) - 2 cos (2 x) = 0

Factor

csc^{2} (x) cos (2 x) - 2 cos (2 x) : cos (2 x) (csc (x) + 2) (csc (x) - 2)

csc^{2} (x) cos (2 x) - 2 cos (2 x)

Factor out common term

cos (2 x)

= cos (2 x) (csc^{2} (x) - 2)

Factor

csc^{2} (x) - 2 : (csc (x) + 2) (csc (x) - 2)

csc^{2} (x) - 2

Apply radical rule:

a = (a)^{2}

2 = (2)^{2}

= csc^{2} (x) - (2)^{2}

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

x^{2} - y^{2} = (x + y) (x - y)

csc^{2} (x) - (2)^{2} = (csc (x) + 2) (csc (x) - 2)

= (csc (x) + 2) (csc (x) - 2)

= cos (2 x) (csc (x) + 2) (csc (x) - 2)

cos (2 x) (csc (x) + 2) (csc (x) - 2) = 0

Solving each part separately

cos (2 x) = 0 or csc (x) + 2 = 0 or csc (x) - 2 = 0

cos (2 x) = 0 : x = \frac{π}{4} + πn, x = \frac{3 π}{4} + πn

cos (2 x) = 0

cos (2 x) = 0
