Q. Find all angles, 0∘≤θ<360∘, that satisfy the equation below, to the nearest tenth of a degree.−6sin2θ−9=7sinθ−8Answer: θ=
Rewrite Equation: Rewrite the given equation in standard quadratic form.The given equation is −6sin2θ−9=7sinθ−8. To rewrite it in standard quadratic form, we need to move all terms to one side of the equation.−6sin2θ−7sinθ−9+8=0−6sin2θ−7sinθ−1=0
Solve Quadratic Equation: Solve the quadratic equation for sinθ. We can use the quadratic formula to solve for sinθ. The quadratic formula is given by sinθ=2a−b±b2−4ac, where a=−6, b=−7, and c=−1. sinθ=2(−6)−(−7)±(−7)2−4(−6)(−1)sinθ=−127±49−24sinθ=−127±25sinθ=−127±5
Find Possible Values: Find the two possible values for sinθ. We have two possible solutions for sinθ: sinθ=−127+5=−1212=−1sinθ=−127−5=−122=−61
Find Angle for sin=−1: Find the angles that correspond to sinθ=−1. The angle for which sinθ=−1 is 270°.
Find Angle for sin=−61: Find the angles that correspond to sinθ=−61. To find the angles corresponding to sinθ=−61, we use the inverse sine function and consider the symmetry of the sine function in the unit circle. θ=arcsin(−61) Since the sine function is negative in the third and fourth quadrants, we need to find the reference angle in the first quadrant and then find the corresponding angles in the third and fourth quadrants. Reference angle = arcsin(61)≈9.6∘ Third quadrant angle = 180∘+9.6∘=189.6∘ Fourth quadrant angle = 360∘−9.6∘=350.4∘
