5cos^2(θ)+3sqrt(2)sin(θ)-11/2 =0

Solution

5 cos^{2} (θ) + 32 sin (θ) - \frac{11}{2} = 0

Solution

θ = 0.14189 \dots + 2 πn, θ = π - 0.14189 \dots + 2 πn, θ = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn

Degrees

θ = 8.13010 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 171.86989 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 4 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 13 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

5 cos^{2} (θ) + 32 sin (θ) - \frac{11}{2} = 0

Simplify

5 cos^{2} (θ) + 32 sin (θ) - \frac{11}{2} : \frac{10 cos ^{2} ( θ ) + 6 2 sin ( θ ) - 11}{2}

5 cos^{2} (θ) + 32 sin (θ) - \frac{11}{2}

Convert element to fraction:

5 cos^{2} (θ) = \frac{5 cos ^{2} ( θ ) 2}{2}, 32 sin (θ) = \frac{3 \cdot 2 sin ( θ ) 2}{2}

= \frac{5 cos ^{2} ( θ ) \cdot 2}{2} + \frac{3 2 sin ( θ ) \cdot 2}{2} - \frac{11}{2}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{5 cos ^{2} ( θ ) \cdot 2 + 3 2 sin ( θ ) \cdot 2 - 11}{2}

5 cos^{2} (θ) \cdot 2 + 32 sin (θ) \cdot 2 - 11 = 10 cos^{2} (θ) + 62 sin (θ) - 11

5 cos^{2} (θ) \cdot 2 + 32 sin (θ) \cdot 2 - 11

Multiply the numbers:

5 \cdot 2 = 10

= 10 cos^{2} (θ) + 3 \cdot 22 sin (θ) - 11

Multiply the numbers:

3 \cdot 2 = 6

= 10 cos^{2} (θ) + 62 sin (θ) - 11

= \frac{10 cos ^{2} ( θ ) + 6 2 sin ( θ ) - 11}{2}

\frac{10 cos ^{2} ( θ ) + 6 2 sin ( θ ) - 11}{2} = 0

\frac{f ( x )}{g ( x )} = 0 \Rightarrow f (x) = 0

10 cos^{2} (θ) + 62 sin (θ) - 11 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 11 + 10 cos^{2} (θ) + 6 sin (θ) 2

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

= - 11 + 10 (1 - sin^{2} (θ)) + 6 sin (θ) 2

Simplify

- 11 + 10 (1 - sin^{2} (θ)) + 6 sin (θ) 2 : 62 sin (θ) - 10 sin^{2} (θ) - 1

- 11 + 10 (1 - sin^{2} (θ)) + 6 sin (θ) 2

= - 11 + 10 (1 - sin^{2} (θ)) + 62 sin (θ)

Expand

10 (1 - sin^{2} (θ)) : 10 - 10 sin^{2} (θ)

10 (1 - sin^{2} (θ))

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 10, b = 1, c = sin^{2} (θ)

= 10 \cdot 1 - 10 sin^{2} (θ)

Multiply the numbers:

10 \cdot 1 = 10

= 10 - 10 sin^{2} (θ)

= - 11 + 10 - 10 sin^{2} (θ) + 6 sin (θ) 2

Add/Subtract the numbers:

- 11 + 10 = - 1

= 62 sin (θ) - 10 sin^{2} (θ) - 1

= 62 sin (θ) - 10 sin^{2} (θ) - 1

- 1 - 10 sin^{2} (θ) + 6 sin (θ) 2 = 0

Solve by substitution

- 1 - 10 sin^{2} (θ) + 6 sin (θ) 2 = 0

Let:

sin (θ) = u

- 1 - 10 u^{2} + 6 u 2 = 0

- 1 - 10 u^{2} + 6 u 2 = 0 : u = \frac{2}{10}, u = \frac{2}{2}

- 1 - 10 u^{2} + 6 u 2 = 0

Write in the standard form

a x^{2} + b x + c = 0

- 10 u^{2} + 62 u - 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

- 10 u^{2} + 62 u - 1 = 0
