Trigonometric Equations and Their Solutions
A trigonometric equation is an equation that contains a
trigonometric expression with a variable, such as sin x.
The values that satisfy such an equation are its solutions.
(There are trigonometric equations that have no solution.)
When an equation includes multiple angles, the period of
the function plays an important role in ensuring that we
do not leave out any solutions.
