What is solution of a trigonometric equation?

Answer»

The solution of a trigonometric equation is a value of the unknown angle that satisfies the equation. 

A trigonometric equation may have an unlimited number of solutions

For example, if sin x = 0, then x = 0, π, 2π, 3π, .... 

• A solution lying between 0° and 360° is called the principal solution

• Since the trigonometric functions are periodic, a solution generalized by means of periodicity is known as the general solution.

Every equation will have a principal solution as well as a general solution.
