solve 0≤ θ <360 tan^2-1=0
Hi, @tfortasuu Welcome to Openstudy :) You can treat tan θ just like any variable x. In fact, let's do that right now :) Let x = tan θ then x² - 1 = 0 Now just solve for x and tell me what you got~
I did that but there are suppose to be four solutions and I got 45 and 225, I just don't know the next too?
Thank you so much oh my god! Can you help with more?
Will do.
So you got your four answers, then? What are they?
Wait is it 45 and 225, what else?
The values for which tan θ = -1
yeah that one
Well, then, what other values of θ? Besides 45 and 225, of course.
umm lol I don't know how to do that part
I'm sure at some point, you memorised the values of sin,cos, and tan, when you started trig. Just review your unit circle, and check the times when sin θ = cos θ and those would be the parts where tan θ = 1 Check the parts where sin θ = -cos θ and those would be the parts where tan θ = -1
is it -1 and 2?
No. (and lol, you can't have a negative θ, you said 0 ≤ θ < 360)
right omg ok 1, 2?
Nope. Review your unit circle.
OH WAIT IS IT 180?
and 270?
