1 Section 7.4 Basic Trigonometric Equations
Chapter 7 – Analytic Trigonometry Section 7.4 Basic Trigonometric Equations 7.4 - Basic Trigonometric Equations

2 7.4 - Basic Trigonometric Equations
Definitions Trigonometric Equation An equation that contains trigonometric functions is called a trigonometric equation. Basic Trigonometric Equation Solving any trigonometric equation always reduces to solving a basic trigonometric equation – an equation in the form T() = c where T is a trigonometric function and c is a constant. 7.4 - Basic Trigonometric Equations

3 Solving Basic Trig Equations
The next few examples will show how we can solve basic trigonometric equations. 7.4 - Basic Trigonometric Equations

4 Example – pg. 522 # 5 Solve the given equation.
This means we want to find the solutions to the problem above for the following: the primary cycle. all solutions. Check by graphing.

10 Solving Trig Equations by Factoring
Factoring is one of the most useful techniques for solving equations, including trigonometric equations. The idea is to move all terms to one side of the equation, factor, and then use the Zero-Product Property. The next few examples will cover solving trigonometric equations by factoring. 7.4 - Basic Trigonometric Equations
