Can you please explain why we're dividing by all of that under the radical in the attached pic?  I read the chapter (6.2) but saw nothing about that part and I have no idea why what I did (in 2nd image) didn't get the right answer?

Can you please explain why we're dividing by all of that under the radical in the attached pic?  I read the chapter (6.2) but saw nothing about that part and I have no idea why what I did (in 2nd image) didn't get the right answer?

 

Thanks!

Given equation:
V3 sin 0 – cos 0 = 1, where 0 < 0 < 360
Calculation:
Given trigonometric equation is
V3 sin 0 – cos 0 = 1
Divide both sides of equation by V(V3) +(-1)2 = 2

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given equation is

3sinθ-cosθ=13sinθ=1+cosθ

Squaring both sides.

3sin2θ=1+cos2θ+2cosθ3(1-cos2θ)=1+cos2θ+2cosθ4cos2θ+2cosθ-2=02cos2θ+cosθ-1=02cos2θ+2cosθ-cosθ-1=02cosθ(cosθ+1)-(cosθ+1)=0(cosθ+1)(2cosθ-1)=0cosθ=-1, cosθ=12

 

Step 2

Now,

 cosθ=-1θ=180°cosθ=12θ=60°,300°

But θ=300° does not satisfy the equation . Therefore, solutions of given differential equation are

θ=60°,180°
