Question

Find the general solutions of the following equation:

`tan^2 theta = 3`

Sum

Solution

The general solution of tan2θ = tan2α is θ = nπ ± α, n ∈ Z.

Now, tan2 θ = 3 = `(sqrt3)^2`

∴ tan2 θ = `(tan  pi/3)^2    ....[because "tan" pi/3 = sqrt3]`

∴ tan2 θ = `tan^2  (pi)/3`

∴ the required general solution is

∴ θ = `"n"pi +- (pi)/3,` n ∈ Z.
