    How can I solve sin(t^2)-(t^2)=0 without a numerical solver?

    Aaaaand there's my problem. I was doing it in degrees the whole time on my calculator, and couldn't figure out why my graph looked nothing like the wolfram graph. Derp. Thanks!

    How can I solve sin(t^2)-(t^2)=0 without a numerical solver?

    Shoot, I realized that I misstated the problem. It's actually 1.225*sin(t2) - t2 =0 But yeah, I realize that it still doesn't make much sense, but this is the answer and the graph that wolfram alpha spits out, and I'm just trying to figure out how to replicate that either on paper or on my...

    How can I solve sin(t^2)-(t^2)=0 without a numerical solver?

    Homework Statement Solve sin(t2) - t2 =0. for t Homework Equations None, besides various trig identities. This was actually a dynamics problem where I had to solve for time, and this is simply the equation you get after summing up all the forces. The Attempt at a SolutionNow obviously...
