Question 1142370: Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0,2π).
-cosx = -sin^2x-1
Write your answer in radians in terms of π.
If there is more than one solution, separate with commas.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Find all solutions of the equation in the interval [0,2π).
-cosx = -sin^2x-1
Add parentheses:
-cos(x) = -sin^2(x) - 1
Is that what you meant?
------------
cos(x) = sin^2(x) + 1
cos%28x%29+=+1+-+cos%5E2%28x%29+%2B+1
=========
Can you do the rest?
======================
Do NOT say this:
If there is more than one solution, separate with commas.
What would we do if we don't have any commas?
