Degrees

x = 4 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 13 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 22 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 31 5^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 3 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 15 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 21 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n, x = 33 0^{\circ} + 36 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

8 sin^{4} (x) - 6 sin^{2} (x) + 1 = 0

Solve by substitution

8 sin^{4} (x) - 6 sin^{2} (x) + 1 = 0

Let:

sin (x) = u

8 u^{4} - 6 u^{2} + 1 = 0

8 u^{4} - 6 u^{2} + 1 = 0 : u = \frac{1}{2}, u = - \frac{1}{2}, u = \frac{1}{2}, u = - \frac{1}{2}

8 u^{4} - 6 u^{2} + 1 = 0

Rewrite the equation with

v = u^{2}

and

v^{2} = u^{4}

8 v^{2} - 6 v + 1 = 0

Solve

8 v^{2} - 6 v + 1 = 0 : v = \frac{1}{2}, v = \frac{1}{4}

8 v^{2} - 6 v + 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula

8 v^{2} - 6 v + 1 = 0

Quadratic Equation Formula:

For

a = 8, b = - 6, c = 1

v_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 6 ) \pm ( - 6 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 8 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 8}

v_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 6 ) \pm ( - 6 ) ^{2} - 4 \cdot 8 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 8}

(- 6)^{2} - 4 \cdot 8 \cdot 1 = 2

(- 6)^{2} - 4 \cdot 8 \cdot 1

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

n

is even

(- 6)^{2} = 6^{2}

= 6^{2} - 4 \cdot 8 \cdot 1

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 8 \cdot 1 = 32

= 6^{2} - 32

6^{2} = 36

= 36 - 32

Subtract the numbers:

36 - 32 = 4

= 4

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= 2^{2}

Apply radical rule:

2^{2} = 2

= 2

v_{1, 2} = \frac{- ( - 6 ) \pm 2}{2 \cdot 8}

Separate the solutions

v_{1} = \frac{- ( - 6 ) + 2}{2 \cdot 8}, v_{2} = \frac{- ( - 6 ) - 2}{2 \cdot 8}

v = \frac{- ( - 6 ) + 2}{2 \cdot 8} : \frac{1}{2}

\frac{- ( - 6 ) + 2}{2 \cdot 8}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{6 + 2}{2 \cdot 8}

Add the numbers:

6 + 2 = 8

= \frac{8}{2 \cdot 8}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 8 = 16

= \frac{8}{16}

Cancel the common factor:

8

= \frac{1}{2}

v = \frac{- ( - 6 ) - 2}{2 \cdot 8} : \frac{1}{4}

\frac{- ( - 6 ) - 2}{2 \cdot 8}

Apply rule

- (- a) = a

= \frac{6 - 2}{2 \cdot 8}

Subtract the numbers:

6 - 2 = 4

= \frac{4}{2 \cdot 8}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 8 = 16

= \frac{4}{16}

Cancel the common factor:

4

= \frac{1}{4}

The solutions to the quadratic equation are:

v = \frac{1}{2}, v = \frac{1}{4}

v = \frac{1}{2}, v = \frac{1}{4}

Substitute back

v = u^{2},

solve for
