Solution

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

Solution

x = - 0.66623 \dots + 2 πn, x = π + 0.66623 \dots + 2 πn, x = 0.66623 \dots + 2 πn, x = π - 0.66623 \dots + 2 πn

Degrees

x = - 38.17270 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 218.17270 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 38.17270 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 141.82729 \dots^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

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

Subtract

1

from both sides

sin^{2} (x) + tan^{2} (x) - 1 = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

- 1 + sin^{2} (x) + tan^{2} (x)

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

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

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

Factor

- cos^{2} (x) + tan^{2} (x) : (tan (x) + cos (x)) (tan (x) - cos (x))

- cos^{2} (x) + tan^{2} (x)

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

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

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

= (tan (x) + cos (x)) (tan (x) - cos (x))

(tan (x) + cos (x)) (tan (x) - cos (x)) = 0

Solving each part separately

tan (x) + cos (x) = 0 or tan (x) - cos (x) = 0

tan (x) + cos (x) = 0 : x = arcsin (- \frac{- 1 + 5}{2}) + 2 πn, x = π + arcsin (\frac{- 1 + 5}{2}) + 2 πn

tan (x) + cos (x) = 0

Express with sin, cos

cos (x) + tan (x)

Use the basic trigonometric identity:

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

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

Simplify

cos (x) + \frac{sin ( x )}{cos ( x )} : \frac{cos ^{2} ( x ) + sin ( x )}{cos ( x )}

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

Convert element to fraction:

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

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

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

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

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

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

cos (x) cos (x) + sin (x)

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

cos (x) cos (x)

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

= cos^{1 + 1} (x)

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= cos^{2} (x)

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

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

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

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

\frac{f ( x )}{g ( x )} = 0 \Rightarrow f (x) = 0

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

Rewrite using trig identities

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

Use the Pythagorean identity:

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

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

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

1 + sin (x) - sin^{2} (x) = 0

Solve by substitution

1 + sin (x) - sin^{2} (x) = 0
