another questions:

solve the following equations for thita ,in the interval 0<thita<360
(sin thita - 1)(5 cos thita + 3)


solve the following equations for x:

cos x= -0.809, -180<x<180

the x value here is= 144, how do we find the rest of the solutions using the diagram method???

ok thx  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
could u please tell me how to solve such questions ?:
 find the values of thita, in the interval 0<thita<360 :
tan(45- thita)=-1

this is my method
let 45-thita = Z
but then how do i find the range for "Z" ???
thx aloooottt

tan(45-x)=-1

Therefore, arctan(-1) = -45

This can also mean that arctan(-1) is 135 and 315.

Thus, the only answer that is between 0 and 360 is 90.

Please note that arctan is just tan^-1

The answer is 65 and 245.

Work out the value of cos(x)=-1

Then you get 180.

So, 2x+50=180

Now you get 65

Now, just do 180+65, because you want a negative value. Cos will be negative in this quadrant.

And u get 245
