4sin^3(θ)-3sin(θ)=0

Solution

4 sin^{3} (θ) - 3 sin (θ) = 0

Solution

θ = 2 πn, θ = π + 2 πn, θ = \frac{4 π}{3} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{5 π}{3} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{π}{3} + 2 πn, θ = \frac{2 π}{3} + 2 πn

Degrees

θ = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 24 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 30 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 6 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, θ = 12 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

4 sin^{3} (θ) - 3 sin (θ) = 0

Solve by substitution

4 sin^{3} (θ) - 3 sin (θ) = 0

Let:

sin (θ) = u

4 u^{3} - 3 u = 0

4 u^{3} - 3 u = 0 : u = 0, u = - \frac{3}{2}, u = \frac{3}{2}

4 u^{3} - 3 u = 0

Factor

4 u^{3} - 3 u : u (2 u + 3) (2 u - 3)

4 u^{3} - 3 u

Factor out common term

u : u (4 u^{2} - 3)

4 u^{3} - 3 u

Apply exponent rule:

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

u^{3} = u^{2} u

= 4 u^{2} u - 3 u

Factor out common term

u

= u (4 u^{2} - 3)

= u (4 u^{2} - 3)

Factor

4 u^{2} - 3 : (2 u + 3) (2 u - 3)

4 u^{2} - 3

Rewrite

4 u^{2} - 3

(2 u)^{2} - (3)^{2}

4 u^{2} - 3

Rewrite

4

2^{2}

= 2^{2} u^{2} - 3

Apply radical rule:

a = (a)^{2}

3 = (3)^{2}

= 2^{2} u^{2} - (3)^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{m} b^{m} = (ab)^{m}

2^{2} u^{2} = (2 u)^{2}

= (2 u)^{2} - (3)^{2}

= (2 u)^{2} - (3)^{2}

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

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

(2 u)^{2} - (3)^{2} = (2 u + 3) (2 u - 3)

= (2 u + 3) (2 u - 3)

= u (2 u + 3) (2 u - 3)

u (2 u + 3) (2 u - 3) = 0

Using the Zero Factor Principle:

ab = 0

then

a = 0

b = 0

u = 0 or 2 u + 3 = 0 or 2 u - 3 = 0

Solve

2 u + 3 = 0 : u = - \frac{3}{2}

2 u + 3 = 0

Move

3

to the right side

2 u + 3 = 0

Subtract

3

from both sides

2 u + 3 - 3 = 0 - 3

Simplify

2 u = - 3

2 u = - 3

Divide both sides by

2

2 u = - 3

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 u}{2} = \frac{- 3}{2}

Simplify

u = - \frac{3}{2}

u = - \frac{3}{2}

Solve

2 u - 3 = 0 : u = \frac{3}{2}

2 u - 3 = 0

Move

3

to the right side

2 u - 3 = 0

Add

3

to both sides

2 u - 3 + 3 = 0 + 3

Simplify

2 u = 3

2 u = 3

Divide both sides by

2

2 u = 3

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 u}{2} = \frac{3}{2}

Simplify

u = \frac{3}{2}

u = \frac{3}{2}

The solutions are

u = 0, u = - \frac{3}{2}, u = \frac{3}{2}

Substitute back

u = sin (θ)

sin (θ) = 0, sin (θ) = - \frac{3}{2}, sin (θ) = \frac{3}{2}

sin (θ) = 0, sin (θ) = - \frac{3}{2}, sin (θ) = \frac{3}{2}

sin (θ) = 0 : θ = 2 πn, θ = π + 2 πn

sin (θ) = 0
