r\cos(\omega t)=x
Variable r cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by r.
\cos(t\omega )r=x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\cos(t\omega )r}{\cos(t\omega )}=\frac{x}{\cos(t\omega )}
Divide both sides by \cos(\omega t).
r=\frac{x}{\cos(t\omega )}
Dividing by \cos(\omega t) undoes the multiplication by \cos(\omega t).
r=\frac{x}{\cos(t\omega )}\text{, }r\neq 0
Variable r cannot be equal to 0.
