6sec^2(x)-8=0

Solution

6 sec^{2} (x) - 8 = 0

Solution

x = \frac{π}{6} + 2 πn, x = \frac{11 π}{6} + 2 πn, x = \frac{5 π}{6} + 2 πn, x = \frac{7 π}{6} + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 3 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 33 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 15 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 21 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

6 sec^{2} (x) - 8 = 0

Solve by substitution

6 sec^{2} (x) - 8 = 0

Let:

sec (x) = u

6 u^{2} - 8 = 0

6 u^{2} - 8 = 0 : u = \frac{2 3}{3}, u = - \frac{2 3}{3}

6 u^{2} - 8 = 0

Move

8

to the right side

6 u^{2} - 8 = 0

Add

8

to both sides

6 u^{2} - 8 + 8 = 0 + 8

Simplify

6 u^{2} = 8

6 u^{2} = 8

Divide both sides by

6

6 u^{2} = 8

Divide both sides by

6

\frac{6 u ^{2}}{6} = \frac{8}{6}

Simplify

u^{2} = \frac{4}{3}

u^{2} = \frac{4}{3}

For

x^{2} = f (a)

the solutions are

x = f (a), - f (a)

u = \frac{4}{3}, u = - \frac{4}{3}

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

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

= \frac{2}{3}

Rationalize

\frac{2}{3} : \frac{2 3}{3}

33 = 3

= 3

= \frac{2 3}{3}

= \frac{2 3}{3}

- \frac{4}{3} = - \frac{2 3}{3}
