2 cos ? tan ? + tan ? = 1 + 2 cos ?
I can\'t figure out what in the world I\'m doing wrong. Rating will be given promptly upon correct answer.
Solution
2 cos tan + tan = 1 + 2 cos
tan(1 + 2 cos ) = 1 + 2 cos
(tan -1)(1 + 2 cos ) =0
tan =1 ----> = tan^-1(1) = k*pi + pi/4, k*pi +5pi/4 ( tan is +ve in Ist and IIrd quadrant)
1+2cos =0
cos = -1/2 ----> = pi-pi/3 , pi+pi/3 ( cos is -ve in IInd and IIIrd quadrant)
= 2pi/3 +2k*pi , 4pi/3 +2k*pi
So, all solutions: = k*pi + pi/4, k*pi +5pi/4 , 2pi/3 +2k*pi , 4pi/3 +2k*pi
(b) In tnterval [0, 2pi)
= pi/4, 5pi/4 , 2pi/3 , 4pi/3
