解答

解法一

思路

展开

把 cos⁡x\cos x 写成关于 cos⁡(x/2)\cos(x/2) 的二倍角式,解二次方程。新角范围是 [0,π][0,\pi],找到新角后还要乘回 22。

答题过程

展开

Put u=cos⁡(x/2)u=\cos(x/2). Since cos⁡x=2cos⁡2(x/2)−1\cos x=2\cos^2(x/2)-1, the equation becomes

2(2u2−1)−u=1.2(2u^2-1)-u=1.

Hence

4u2−u−3=(4u+3)(u−1)=0.4u^2-u-3=(4u+3)(u-1)=0.

Thus cos⁡(x/2)=1\cos(x/2)=1 or cos⁡(x/2)=−3/4\cos(x/2)=-3/4.

Because 0≤x/2≤π0\le x/2\le\pi, the first gives x=0x=0 and the second gives

x= 2cos⁡−1(−34)= 4.837716….\begin{align*} x=&\,2\cos^{-1}\bigg(-\frac34\bigg)\\[4mm] =&\,4.837716\ldots. \end{align*}

Therefore

x=0orx=4.84\boxed{x=0\quad\text{or}\quad x=4.84}

in radians.

思路

也可先将半角余弦单独移项,平方后得到关于 cos⁡x\cos x 的二次方程。平方可能产生伪根,必须代回未平方的关系检查。

答题过程

展开

Rearrange the equation as

cos⁡x2=2cos⁡x−1.\cos\frac x2=2\cos x-1.

Squaring and using cos⁡2(x/2)=(1+cos⁡x)/2\cos^2(x/2)=(1+\cos x)/2 gives

1+cos⁡x2=(2cos⁡x−1)2.\frac{1+\cos x}{2}=(2\cos x-1)^2.

Thus

8cos⁡2x−9cos⁡x+1= 0,(8cos⁡x−1)(cos⁡x−1)= 0.\begin{align*} 8\cos^2x-9\cos x+1=&\,0,\\[4mm] (8\cos x-1)(\cos x-1)=&\,0. \end{align*}

For cos⁡x=1\cos x=1, the candidates in the interval are x=0,2πx=0,2\pi. The original relation requires cos⁡(x/2)=1\cos(x/2)=1, so x=0x=0 is valid and x=2πx=2\pi is rejected.

For cos⁡x=1/8\cos x=1/8, the original relation requires cos⁡(x/2)=−3/4\cos(x/2)=-3/4. Thus x/2x/2 is in the second quadrant, selecting

x= 2π−cos⁡−118= 4.837716….\begin{align*} x=&\,2\pi-\cos^{-1}\frac18\\[4mm] =&\,4.837716\ldots. \end{align*}

Hence x=0 or x=4.84\boxed{x=0\text{ or }x=4.84} in radians.
