Find All Complex Solutions csc(theta)+ square root of 2=0

$\csc (θ) + \sqrt{2} = 0$

Step 1

Subtract $\sqrt{2}$ from both sides of the equation.

$\csc (θ) = - \sqrt{2}$

Step 2

Take the inverse cosecant of both sides of the equation to extract $θ$ from inside the cosecant.

$θ = arccsc (- \sqrt{2})$

Step 3

Simplify the right side.

The exact value of $arccsc (- \sqrt{2})$ is $- \frac{π}{4}$ .

$θ = - \frac{π}{4}$

Step 4

The cosecant function is negative in the third and fourth quadrants. To find the second solution, subtract the solution from $2 π$ , to find a reference angle. Next, add this reference angle to $π$ to find the solution in the third quadrant.

$θ = 2 π + \frac{π}{4} + π$

Step 5

Simplify the expression to find the second solution.

Subtract $2 π$ from $2 π + \frac{π}{4} + π$ .

$θ = 2 π + \frac{π}{4} + π - 2 π$

The resulting angle of $\frac{5 π}{4}$ is positive, less than $2 π$ , and coterminal with $2 π + \frac{π}{4} + π$ .

$θ = \frac{5 π}{4}$

Step 6

Find the period of $\csc (θ)$ .

The period of the function can be calculated using $\frac{2 π}{| b |}$ .

$\frac{2 π}{| b |}$

Replace $b$ with $1$ in the formula for period.

$\frac{2 π}{| 1 |}$

The absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. The distance between $0$ and $1$ is $1$ .

$\frac{2 π}{1}$

Divide $2 π$ by $1$ .

$2 π$

Step 7

Add $2 π$ to every negative angle to get positive angles.

Add $2 π$ to $- \frac{π}{4}$ to find the positive angle.

$- \frac{π}{4} + 2 π$

To write $2 π$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{4}{4}$ .

$2 π \cdot \frac{4}{4} - \frac{π}{4}$

Combine fractions.

Combine $2 π$ and $\frac{4}{4}$ .

$\frac{2 π \cdot 4}{4} - \frac{π}{4}$

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{2 π \cdot 4 - π}{4}$

Simplify the numerator.

Multiply $4$ by $2$ .

$\frac{8 π - π}{4}$

Subtract $π$ from $8 π$ .

$\frac{7 π}{4}$

List the new angles.

$θ = \frac{7 π}{4}$

Step 8

The period of the $\csc (θ)$ function is $2 π$ so values will repeat every $2 π$ radians in both directions.

$θ = \frac{5 π}{4} + 2 π n, \frac{7 π}{4} + 2 π n$ , for any integer $n$
