Question
Solve the following equations:
$\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}=\sqrt{2}$

Answer

We have,
$\sin\text{x}+\cos\text{x}=\sqrt{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin\text{x}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cos\text{x}=1$
$\Rightarrow\sin\frac{\pi}{4}\sin\text{x}+\cos\frac{\pi}{4}\cos\text{x}=1$$\Big[\because\cos\frac{\pi}{4}=\sin\frac{\pi}{4}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\Big]$
$\Rightarrow\cos\Big(\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}\Big)=\cos0^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}-\frac{\pi}{4}=2\text{n}\pi,\text{n}\in\text{z}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=2\text{n}\pi+\frac{\pi}{4},\text{n}\in\text{z}$
$\therefore\text{x}=(8\text{n}+1)\frac{\pi}{4},\text{n}\in\text{z}$
