Given the inequality: cot(x)<33 To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation: cot(x)=33 Solve: Given the equation cot(x)=33 transform cot(x)−1−33=0 cot(x)−1−33=0 Do replacement w=cot(x) Expand brackets in the left part
-1 + w - sqrt3/3 = 0
Move free summands (without w) from left part to right part, we given: w−33=1 Divide both parts of the equation by (w - sqrt(3)/3)/w
w = 1 / ((w - sqrt(3)/3)/w)
We get the answer: w = 1 + sqrt(3)/3 do backward replacement cot(x)=w substitute w: x1=3π x1=3π This roots x1=3π is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression. First define with the sign to the leftmost point: x0<x1 For example, let's take the point x0=x1−101 = −101+3π = −101+3π substitute to the expression cot(x)<33 cot(−101+3π)<33
