(tan(x)-1)(sqrt(3)tan(x)+1)=0

Solution

(tan (x) - 1) (3 tan (x) + 1) = 0

Solution

x = \frac{π}{4} + πn, x = \frac{5 π}{6} + πn

Degrees

x = 4 5^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n, x = 15 0^{\circ} + 18 0^{\circ} n

Solution steps

(tan (x) - 1) (3 tan (x) + 1) = 0

Solving each part separately

tan (x) - 1 = 0 or 3 tan (x) + 1 = 0

tan (x) - 1 = 0 : x = \frac{π}{4} + πn

tan (x) - 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

tan (x) - 1 = 0

Add

1

to both sides

tan (x) - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

Simplify

tan (x) = 1

tan (x) = 1

x = \frac{π}{4} + πn

x = \frac{π}{4} + πn

3 tan (x) + 1 = 0 : x = \frac{5 π}{6} + πn

3 tan (x) + 1 = 0

Move

1

to the right side

3 tan (x) + 1 = 0

Subtract

1

from both sides

3 tan (x) + 1 - 1 = 0 - 1

Simplify

3 tan (x) = - 1

3 tan (x) = - 1

Divide both sides by

3

3 tan (x) = - 1

Divide both sides by

3

\frac{3 tan ( x )}{3} = \frac{- 1}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 tan ( x )}{3} = \frac{- 1}{3}

Simplify

\frac{3 tan ( x )}{3} : tan (x)

\frac{3 tan ( x )}{3}

Cancel the common factor:

3

= tan (x)

Simplify

\frac{- 1}{3} : - \frac{3}{3}

\frac{- 1}{3}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{1}{3}

Rationalize

- \frac{1}{3} : - \frac{3}{3}

- \frac{1}{3}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 3}{3 3}

1 \cdot 3 = 3

33 = 3

33

Apply radical rule:

a a = a

33 = 3

= 3

= - \frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{3}{3}

tan (x) = - \frac{3}{3}

tan (x) = - \frac{3}{3}

tan (x) = - \frac{3}{3}
