Can you repeat how you did the last problem? didn't you substitute for that one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have: \[\tan^2 \psi-\sqrt3 \tan \psi=0; \lambda = \tan \psi \implies \lambda^2-\sqrt3 \lambda=0 \implies \lambda= \pm \sqrt[4]{3}\]\[\implies \tan \psi = \pm \sqrt[4]{3} \implies \psi = \arctan(\pm \sqrt[4]{3})\] Which you can plug into wolfram to get ~53 degrees
