两边取正切,就能去掉反正切。给定角在反正切的主值范围内。

Since −4π lies in the principal range of tan−1,
5x−3=tan(−4π)=−1.
Therefore x=52.

用平方恒等式把方程化成关于 sinθ 的二次方程。求出参考角后,只保留指定区间内的解。

Using cos2θ=1−sin2θ gives
5sin2θ+4sinθ−1=(5sinθ−1)(sinθ+1)=0.
If sinθ=51, the reference angle is α=sin−1(1/5). The first-quadrant solution α is outside the interval, so only π−α≈2.94 remains. If sinθ=−1, the only angle in the interval is 23π. Thus the answers in radians are 2.94 (to three significant figures) and 23π.
