Capitolo 7, Problema 6.3.7

Solve for exact solutions over the interval [0°, 360°).
sin θ/2 = 0

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Start with the given equation: \(\frac{\sin \theta}{2} = 0\). This means that \(\sin \theta\) divided by 2 equals zero.
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate \(\sin \theta\): \(\sin \theta = 0\).
Recall that \(\sin \theta = 0\) at specific angles within the interval \([0^\circ, 360^\circ)\), specifically where the sine function crosses the x-axis.
Identify the angles where \(\sin \theta = 0\) in the given interval. These are the angles where the terminal side of \(\theta\) lies along the x-axis.
Write down the exact solutions for \(\theta\) in degrees within \([0^\circ, 360^\circ)\) where \(\sin \theta = 0\).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Solving Basic Trigonometric Equations

To solve equations like sin(θ/2) = 0, identify the angles where the sine function equals zero. Since sine is zero at integer multiples of 180°, set the argument θ/2 equal to these values and solve for θ within the given interval.

Understanding the Domain and Interval Restrictions

The problem restricts θ to the interval [0°, 360°), so solutions must be found only within this range. After solving for θ, verify that each solution lies within the specified interval to ensure validity.
