tan^2(θ)-1=0

tan^{2} (θ) - 1 = 0

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

Degrees

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

Solution steps

tan^{2} (θ) - 1 = 0

Solve by substitution

tan^{2} (θ) - 1 = 0

Let:

tan (θ) = u

u^{2} - 1 = 0

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

u^{2} - 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

u^{2} - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

u^{2} - 1 + 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 = tan (θ)

tan (θ) = 1, tan (θ) = - 1

tan (θ) = 1, tan (θ) = - 1

tan (θ) = 1 : θ = \frac{π}{4} + πn

tan (θ) = 1

θ = \frac{π}{4} + πn

θ = \frac{π}{4} + πn

tan (θ) = - 1 : θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + πn

tan (θ) = - 1

General solutions for

tan (θ) = - 1

tan (x)

periodicity table with

πn

cycle:

x 0 \frac{π}{6} \frac{π}{4} \frac{π}{3} \frac{π}{2} \frac{2 π}{3} \frac{3 π}{4} \frac{5 π}{6} tan (x) 0 \frac{3}{3} 13 \pm \infty - 3 - 1 - \frac{3}{3}

θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + πn

θ = \frac{3 π}{4} + πn

Combine all the solutions

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

tan (x) - 2 sin (x) tan (x) = 0

cos (x) = \frac{2}{5}

sin (θ) + cos (θ) = 2

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

2 sin^{2} (x) + cos (x) = 0
