I need help please. Find 4 solutions of the equation (sin x)^2 = 1/4 for x between 0 and 360. Please show how you found it if not u will be reported.

Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

  • (sinx)²=1/4
  • sinx=√1/4
  • sinx =1/2
  • sinx=sin30°
  • x=30°

hope it helps.

Answer:

x = 30, 150, 210, 330 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

(sin x)^2 = 1/4

sin x = +/- √1/4

sin x = +/- /2

In the first quadrant  x =  angle whose sine is 1/2 = 30 degrees.

There is also a solution in the other 3 quadrants.

In second quadrant  where sine = 1/2  , x = 180-30 = 150 degrees,

In 3rd and 4th where sine x = -1/2 the angles are 210 and 330 degrees.
