Step-by-step solution

3 steps

Here are the solutions for the given trigonometric equations:

(i) 4cos⁡3θ=cos⁡θ4 \cos^3 \theta = \cos \theta

  1. Rearrange the equation to set it to zero.

    4cos⁡3θ−cos⁡θ=04 \cos^3 \theta - \cos \theta = 0
  2. Factor out cos⁡θ\cos \theta.

    cos⁡θ(4cos⁡2θ−1)=0\cos \theta (4 \cos^2 \theta - 1) = 0
  3. Set each factor equal to zero and solve for θ\theta.

    Case 1: cos⁡θ=0\cos \theta = 0

    θ=π2+nπ\theta = \frac{\pi}{2} + n\pi

    Case 2:
