Evaluate zeros of a symbolic trigonometric function

Hi,

I'm trying to find the zeros for this symbolic function:

2*cos(x) + x*sin(x) -2 == 0

is there a way to do it in MatLab?

Many thanks

Hi,

You can use ' solve' command to solve the equation.For more information on ' solve', please have a look at the following link: https://www.mathworks.com/help/symbolic/solve.html

You can also use ' fsolve' and ' fzero' to solve nonlinear equations.For more information please have a look at the following links:
