AQA A Level Maths: Pure復習筆記5.3.3 Quadratic Trigonometric Equations
Quadratic Trigonometric Equations
Solving quadratic trigonometric equations
- If an equation involves sin2θ or cos2θ then it is a quadratic trigonometric equation
- These can be solved by factorising and/or using?trigonometric identities?(see?Trigonometry – Simple Identities)
- As a quadratic can result in two solutions, will need to consider whether each solution exists and then find all solutions within a given?interval?for each
Exam Tip
- Sketch the appropriate sin, cos, tan graph to ensure you find ALL solutions?within?the given interval, and be?super-careful if you get a negative solution but have a positive interval.
- For example, for an equation, in the interval 0° ≤ x ≤ 360°, with solution sin x = ?? then sin?1(??) = -14.5 (to 1d.p.), which is not between 0 and 360 – by sketching the graph you’ll be able to spot the two solutions will be 180 + 14.5 and 360 ? 14.5.
