How to solve #sin3x<sinx#?
2 Answers
The solution is
Explanation:
To solve this trigonometric inequality, we need
The inequality is
Let
The period of
Study the functio on the interval
Therefore,
Let
The solutions to this equation are
Build a sign chart
Therefore,
graph{sin(3x)-sinx [-8.54, 37.08, -9.16, 13.64]}
sin 3x - sin x < 0
f(x) = 2cos (2x). sin x < 0
First solve the 2 basic trig equations to find the end-points (critical points)
1. g(x) = cos 2x = 0 -->
2. h(x) = sin x = 0 -->
Next, to algebraically solve the trig inequality, create a sign chart that shows the variation of the 2 functions g(x) and h(x) when x varies from 0 to
The sign (+ or -) of the function f(x) is the resulting sign of the 2 function g(x) and h(x)
The solutions are the intervals
You also can solve the trig inequality by using graphing calculator.
The parts of the graph that lie below the x-axis represent the answers inside the interval
Note. The graph shows x in radians. Exp. x = pi = 3.14;
x = pi/2 = 1.57
