7cos(x)+7sin(x)tan(x)=14

Solution

7 cos (x) + 7 sin (x) tan (x) = 14

Solution

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

Degrees

x = 6 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 30 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

7 cos (x) + 7 sin (x) tan (x) = 14

Subtract

14

from both sides

7 cos (x) + 7 sin (x) tan (x) - 14 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 14 + 7 cos (x) + 7 sin (x) tan (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

= - 14 + 7 cos (x) + 7 sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

7 sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} = \frac{7 sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

7 sin (x) \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{sin ( x ) \cdot 7 sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

sin (x) \cdot 7 sin (x) = 7 sin^{2} (x)

sin (x) \cdot 7 sin (x)

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

= 7 sin^{1 + 1} (x)

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 7 sin^{2} (x)

= \frac{7 sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= - 14 + 7 cos (x) + \frac{7 sin ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

= - 14 + \frac{7 ( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) )}{cos ( x )} + 7 cos (x)

Combine the fractions

\frac{7 ( - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 1 )}{cos ( x )} + 7 cos (x) : \frac{7}{cos ( x )}

\frac{7 ( - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 1 )}{cos ( x )} + 7 cos (x)

Convert element to fraction:

7 cos (x) = \frac{7 cos ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{7 ( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) )}{cos ( x )} + \frac{7 cos ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

= \frac{7 ( 1 - cos ^{2} ( x ) ) + 7 cos ( x ) cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

7 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 7 cos (x) cos (x) = 7 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 7 cos^{2} (x)

7 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 7 cos (x) cos (x)

7 cos (x) cos (x) = 7 cos^{2} (x)

7 cos (x) cos (x)

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

= 7 cos^{1 + 1} (x)

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 7 cos^{2} (x)

= 7 (- cos^{2} (x) + 1) + 7 cos^{2} (x)

= \frac{7 ( - cos ^{2} ( x ) + 1 ) + 7 cos ^{2} ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Expand

7 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 7 cos^{2} (x) : 7

7 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) + 7 cos^{2} (x)

Expand

7 (1 - cos^{2} (x)) : 7 - 7 cos^{2} (x)

7 (1 - cos^{2} (x))

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 7, b = 1, c = cos^{2} (x)

= 7 \cdot 1 - 7 cos^{2} (x)

Multiply the numbers:

7 \cdot 1 = 7

= 7 - 7 cos^{2} (x)

= 7 - 7 cos^{2} (x) + 7 cos^{2} (x)

Add similar elements:

- 7 cos^{2} (x) + 7 cos^{2} (x) = 0

= 7

= \frac{7}{cos ( x )}

= \frac{7}{cos ( x )} - 14

- 14 + \frac{7}{cos ( x )} = 0

- 14 + \frac{7}{cos ( x )} = 0

Multiply both sides by

cos (x)

- 14 + \frac{7}{cos ( x )} = 0

Multiply both sides by

cos (x)

- 14 cos (x) + \frac{7}{cos ( x )} cos (x) = 0 \cdot cos (x)

Simplify

- 14 cos (x) + \frac{7}{cos ( x )} cos (x) = 0 \cdot cos (x)

Simplify

\frac{7}{cos ( x )} cos (x) : 7

\frac{7}{cos ( x )} cos (x)

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{7 cos ( x )}{cos ( x )}

Cancel the common factor:

cos (x)

= 7

Simplify

0 \cdot cos (x) : 0

0 \cdot cos (x)

Apply rule

0 \cdot a = 0

= 0

- 14 cos (x) + 7 = 0

- 14 cos (x) + 7 = 0

- 14 cos (x) + 7 = 0

Move

7

to the right side

- 14 cos (x) + 7 = 0

Subtract

7

from both sides

- 14 cos (x) + 7 - 7 = 0 - 7

Simplify

- 14 cos (x) = - 7

- 14 cos (x) = - 7

Divide both sides by

- 14

- 14 cos (x) = - 7

Divide both sides by

- 14

\frac{- 14 cos ( x )}{- 14} = \frac{- 7}{- 14}

Simplify

\frac{- 14 cos ( x )}{- 14} = \frac{- 7}{- 14}

Simplify

\frac{- 14 cos ( x )}{- 14} : cos (x)

\frac{- 14 cos ( x )}{- 14}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{- b} = \frac{a}{b}

= \frac{14 cos ( x )}{14}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{14}{14} = 1

= cos (x)

Simplify

\frac{- 7}{- 14} : \frac{1}{2}

\frac{- 7}{- 14}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{- b} = \frac{a}{b}

= \frac{7}{14}

Cancel the common factor:

7

= \frac{1}{2}

cos (x) = \frac{1}{2}

cos (x) = \frac{1}{2}

cos (x) = \frac{1}{2}
