Find the principal and general solution of `cosec x = 2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`x=pi/6` and `x=n pi + (-1)^n pi/6, n in mathbbZ`
`cosec x = 2`
`cosec x = cosec\ pi/6`
`x=pi/6`
Hence, the principal solution is `pi/6`.
And, the general solution is `x=n pi + (-1)^n\ pi/6, n in mathbbZ`.
