Hi, I've tried to solve this equation:
$(2-\sqrt{2})(1+\cos x)+\tan x=0$
and I've tried everything but nothing works...Does anybody have an idea?Clever! (Bow)MarkFL said:If we use double-angle identities for cosine and tangent (where $u=\dfrac{x}{2}$), we have:
laura123 said:Thanks! There is another solution. When you use double-angle identities for cosine and tangent you have $x\neq \pi+2k\pi$, but this is also a solution of the equation.
