Try to solve this system of equations

Posted 12 years ago

Hello everyone I try to solve this system shown below.


There are 5 unknown variables and 5 equations. This system is quite complex because of trigonometric functions. I do not know how to solve them. It took a long time and I haven't got the answer yet. It's still running.

Anyone can help me? Thank you very very very much in advance.

Nonlinear equations are tough. You can't guarantee they have a solution and there's no single trick or method for finding the solution. If Mathematica doesn't find a solution, then its pretty likely that a symbolic solution doesn't exist. I wasn't able to find a simple way to improve the equations. You can either:

  • Simplify the equations somehow,usually by linearizing something like a Cosine or Sine.
  • Try using a numerical method to search for a solution. NSolve or FindRoot can be used here.
