sin^2(2x)=2sin^2(x)

Solution

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

Solution

x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn, x = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn, x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn, x = \frac{π}{4} + 2 πn, x = \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 πn

Degrees

x = 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 18 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 13 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 22 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 4 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 31 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

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

Subtract

2 sin^{2} (x)

from both sides

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

Factor

sin^{2} (2 x) - 2 sin^{2} (x) : (sin (2 x) + 2 sin (x)) (sin (2 x) - 2 sin (x))

sin^{2} (2 x) - 2 sin^{2} (x)

Rewrite

sin^{2} (2 x) - 2 sin^{2} (x)

sin^{2} (2 x) - (2 sin (x))^{2}

sin^{2} (2 x) - 2 sin^{2} (x)

Apply radical rule:

a = (a)^{2}

2 = (2)^{2}

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

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

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

Apply Difference of Two Squares Formula:

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

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

= (sin (2 x) + 2 sin (x)) (sin (2 x) - 2 sin (x))

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

Solving each part separately

sin (2 x) + 2 sin (x) = 0 or sin (2 x) - 2 sin (x) = 0

sin (2 x) + 2 sin (x) = 0 : x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn, x = \frac{3 π}{4} + 2 πn, x = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 πn

sin (2 x) + 2 sin (x) = 0

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (2 x) + sin (x) 2

Use the Double Angle identity:

sin (2 x) = 2 sin (x) cos (x)

= 2 sin (x) cos (x) + 2 sin (x)

sin (x) 2 + 2 cos (x) sin (x) = 0

Factor

sin (x) 2 + 2 cos (x) sin (x) : sin (x) (2 + 2 cos (x))

sin (x) 2 + 2 cos (x) sin (x)

Factor out common term

sin (x)

= sin (x) (2 + 2 cos (x))

sin (x) (2 + 2 cos (x)) = 0

Solving each part separately

sin (x) = 0 or 2 + 2 cos (x) = 0

sin (x) = 0 : x = 2 πn, x = π + 2 πn

sin (x) = 0
