Given the inequality:
$$2 \cos{\left(\frac{x}{3} + 2 \right)} \geq 1$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$2 \cos{\left(\frac{x}{3} + 2 \right)} = 1$$
Solve:
Given the equation
$$2 \cos{\left(\frac{x}{3} + 2 \right)} = 1$$
- this is the simplest trigonometric equation
Divide both parts of the equation by 2
The equation is transformed to
$$\cos{\left(\frac{x}{3} + 2 \right)} = \frac{1}{2}$$
This equation is transformed to
$$\frac{x}{3} + 2 = \pi n + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)}$$
$$\frac{x}{3} + 2 = \pi n - \pi + \operatorname{acos}{\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)}$$
Or
$$\frac{x}{3} + 2 = \pi n + \frac{\pi}{3}$$
$$\frac{x}{3} + 2 = \pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3}$$
, where n - is a integer
Move
$$2$$
to right part of the equation
with the opposite sign, in total:
$$\frac{x}{3} = \pi n - 2 + \frac{\pi}{3}$$
$$\frac{x}{3} = \pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3} - 2$$
Divide both parts of the equation by
$$\frac{1}{3}$$
$$x_{1} = 3 \pi n - 6 + \pi$$
$$x_{2} = 3 \pi n - 2 \pi - 6$$
$$x_{1} = 3 \pi n - 6 + \pi$$
$$x_{2} = 3 \pi n - 2 \pi - 6$$
This roots
$$x_{1} = 3 \pi n - 6 + \pi$$
$$x_{2} = 3 \pi n - 2 \pi - 6$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} \leq x_{1}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{1} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$\left(3 \pi n - 6 + \pi\right) + - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$3 \pi n - \frac{61}{10} + \pi$$
substitute to the expression
$$2 \cos{\left(\frac{x}{3} + 2 \right)} \geq 1$$
$$2 \cos{\left(\frac{3 \pi n - \frac{61}{10} + \pi}{3} + 2 \right)} \geq 1$$
/ 1 pi \
2*cos|- -- + -- + pi*n| >= 1
\ 30 3 /
but
/ 1 pi \
2*cos|- -- + -- + pi*n| < 1
\ 30 3 /
Then
$$x \leq 3 \pi n - 6 + \pi$$
no execute
one of the solutions of our inequality is:
$$x \geq 3 \pi n - 6 + \pi \wedge x \leq 3 \pi n - 2 \pi - 6$$
