Question 983506: Please help me solve these 3 equations for solutions from [0, 2pi]:
1.)
2.)
3.)
Thank you!!!

Answer by ikleyn(52803)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

1. - = .

Introduce new variable    = .

Then your equation will be

- = .

One solution is   = ,  i.e.    = ,  which gives    =  or    = .
Please complete this case yourself.

Next,  if   is not zero,  then you can reduce the original equation to the form

- = ,   i.e.    = .

It gives you    = ,  and then    =  or    = = .

You can complete this case yourself.


The remaining equations can be solved using the same trick with introduction of a new variable.

You can do it yourself.

Good luck !!!
