I would appreciate some help with these two questions:
Solve each question for 0 ≦ Ꮎ < 2p
1.
Use the principle of square roots:
Since the cosine can be positive or negative,
The solutions are all the angles in all four
quadrants with a 45² or
reference
angle.
They are:
,
,
,
2.
Factor out GCF
Use the zero-factor property. Setting the first
factor = 0,
This has solutions
,
Setting the other factor = 0,
Since the sine is negative, the solutions are the
angles in the third and fourth quadrants with a
45² or
reference angle.
They are
and
So the solutions are:
,
,
, and
