Q. Find all angles, 0∘≤θ<360∘, that satisfy the equation below, to the nearest tenth of a degree.5tan2(θ)−16tan(θ)=−9tan(θ)−2
Simplify Equation: First, we need to simplify the given equation by moving all terms to one side to set the equation to zero. This will allow us to factor or use other methods to solve for tan(θ). 5tan2(θ)−16tan(θ)+9tan(θ)+2=0Simplify the tan(θ) terms:5tan2(θ)−7tan(θ)+2=0
Factor Quadratic: Next, we factor the quadratic equation in terms of tan(θ).$5tan(θ)−2(\tan(\theta) - 1) = 0\)
Solve for tan(θ): Now, we solve for tan(θ) by setting each factor equal to zero.First factor: 5tan(θ)−2=0tan(θ)=52
Find Angle for tan(52): Second factor: tan(θ)−1=0tan(θ)=1
Find Angle for tan(1): We now find the angles θ that correspond to the tan(θ) values we found. We'll start with tan(θ)=52. Using a calculator, we find the angle whose tangent is 52. This angle is in the first quadrant. θ≈arctan(52)≈21.8 degrees Since tangent is positive in both the first and third quadrants, we also find the angle in the third quadrant by adding 180 degrees. θ≈21.8 degrees +180 degrees ≈201.8 degrees
Final Angles: Next, we find the angles for tan(θ)=1. The angle whose tangent is 1 in the first quadrant is 45 degrees. Since tangent is also positive in the third quadrant, we add 180 degrees to find the angle in the third quadrant. θ=45 degrees +180 degrees =225 degrees
Final Angles: Next, we find the angles for tan(θ)=1. The angle whose tangent is 1 in the first quadrant is 45 degrees. Since tangent is also positive in the third quadrant, we add 180 degrees to find the angle in the third quadrant. θ=45 degrees +180 degrees =225 degrees We now have all the angles that satisfy the original equation within the range of 0 to 360 degrees. The angles are approximately 21.8 degrees, 10 degrees, and 11 degrees.
