sin(x)cos(x)=(sqrt(2))/4

Solution

sin (x) cos (x) = \frac{2}{4}

Solution

x = \frac{π}{8} + πn, x = \frac{3 π}{8} + πn

Degrees

x = 22. 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 67. 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

sin (x) cos (x) = \frac{2}{4}

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (x) cos (x)

Use the Double Angle identity:

2 sin (x) cos (x) = sin (2 x)

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

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

\frac{sin ( 2 x )}{2} = \frac{2}{4}

Multiply both sides by

2

\frac{sin ( 2 x )}{2} = \frac{2}{4}

Multiply both sides by

2

\frac{2 sin ( 2 x )}{2} = \frac{2 2}{4}

Simplify

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

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

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

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

Solve

2 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn : x = \frac{π}{8} + πn

2 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} = \frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2}

Simplify

\frac{2 x}{2} : x

\frac{2 x}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= x

Simplify

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} + \frac{2 πn}{2} : \frac{π}{8} + πn

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2} = \frac{π}{8}

\frac{\frac{π}{4}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{π}{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= \frac{π}{8}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{π}{8} + πn

Solve

2 x = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn : x = \frac{3 π}{8} + πn

2 x = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

2

2 x = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn

Divide both sides by

\frac{\frac{3 π}{4}}{2} = \frac{3 π}{8}

\frac{\frac{3 π}{4}}{2}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= \frac{3 π}{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= \frac{3 π}{8}

\frac{2 πn}{2} = πn

\frac{2 πn}{2}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{2}{2} = 1

= πn

= \frac{3 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{3 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{3 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{3 π}{8} + πn

x = \frac{π}{8} + πn, x = \frac{3 π}{8} + πn
