2sin(x-pi/4)+sqrt(2)cos(x)=1

Solution

2 sin (x - \frac{π}{4}) + 2 cos (x) = 1

Solution

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

Degrees

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

Solution steps

2 sin (x - \frac{π}{4}) + 2 cos (x) = 1

Rewrite using trig identities

2 sin (x - \frac{π}{4}) + 2 cos (x) = 1

Rewrite using trig identities

sin (x - \frac{π}{4})

Use the Angle Difference identity:

sin (s - t) = sin (s) cos (t) - cos (s) sin (t)

= sin (x) cos (\frac{π}{4}) - cos (x) sin (\frac{π}{4})

Simplify

sin (x) cos (\frac{π}{4}) - cos (x) sin (\frac{π}{4}) : \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2}

sin (x) cos (\frac{π}{4}) - cos (x) sin (\frac{π}{4})

sin (x) cos (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2 sin ( x )}{2}

sin (x) cos (\frac{π}{4})

Simplify

cos (\frac{π}{4}) : \frac{2}{2}

cos (\frac{π}{4})

Use the following trivial identity:

cos (\frac{π}{4}) = \frac{2}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

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

= \frac{2 sin ( x )}{2} - \frac{2 cos ( x )}{2}

Apply rule

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

= \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2}

= \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2}

2 \cdot \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2} + 2 cos (x) = 1

Simplify

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

2 \cdot \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2} + 2 cos (x)

2 \cdot \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2} = 2 sin (x) - 2 cos (x)

2 \cdot \frac{2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x )}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{( 2 sin ( x ) - 2 cos ( x ) ) \cdot 2}{2}

Cancel the common factor:

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

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

Add similar elements:

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

= 2 sin (x)

2 sin (x) = 1

2 sin (x) = 1

Subtract

1

from both sides

2 sin (x) - 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

2 sin (x) - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

2 sin (x) - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

2 sin (x) = 1

2 sin (x) = 1

Divide both sides by

2

2 sin (x) = 1

Divide both sides by
