Identify the given equation: 3\(\theta\) equals the angles 180°, 630°, 720°, and 930°.
To find \(\theta\), divide each angle by 3, since the equation is 3\(\theta\) = angle.
Calculate \(\theta\) for each angle: \(\theta\) = \(\frac{180°}{3}\), \(\frac{630°}{3}\), \(\frac{720°}{3}\), \(\frac{930°}{3}\).
Simplify each fraction to get the values of \(\theta\).
Check that each \(\theta\) value lies within the interval [0°, 360°). If any value is outside this range, adjust it by subtracting or adding 360° as needed to bring it within the interval.

How to Solve Linear Trigonometric Equations

Angle Division and Interval Constraints

When an equation involves a multiple of an angle, such as 3θ, dividing the solutions by that multiple gives the values of θ. It is important to adjust the solutions to fit within the original interval, here [0°, 360°), by considering the periodicity and reducing angles modulo 360° if necessary.

Understanding Angle Measures and Periodicity

Angles in trigonometry are often measured in degrees and repeat every 360°. Recognizing that angles differing by full rotations (multiples of 360°) represent the same position on the unit circle helps in identifying equivalent solutions and restricting answers to the given interval.
