Solving Trigonometric Equations

The video tutorial explains how to solve a trigonometric equation on the interval from 0 to 2π, closed on 0 and open on 2π. It involves adding 0.32 to both sides of the equation and using a calculator to find the sine of the angle. The tutorial covers the use of inverse sine to simplify the equation and find the angle X. It also discusses the importance of the unit circle and the sine function's positivity in the first and second quadrants. The video demonstrates how to find solutions in both quadrants and calculate the angle in the second quadrant by subtracting the reference angle from π.
