In Exercises 85–96, use a calculator to solve each equation, correct to four decimal places, on the interval [0, 2𝝅). 4 tan² x - 8 tan x + 3 = 0

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the given equation is a quadratic in terms of \( \tan x \): \(4 \tan^{2} x - 8 \tan x + 3 = 0\). Our goal is to solve for \(x\) in the interval \([0, 2\pi)\).
Let \(t = \tan x\). Rewrite the equation as \(4t^{2} - 8t + 3 = 0\). This is a standard quadratic equation in \(t\).
Use the quadratic formula to solve for \(t\): \[ t = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac}}{2a} \] where \(a=4\), \(b=-8\), and \(c=3\).
Calculate the two values of \(t\) from the quadratic formula. Each value corresponds to \(\tan x = t\).
For each value of \(t\), find the solutions for \(x\) by taking the arctangent: \[ x = \arctan(t) \]. Since \(\tan x\) is periodic with period \(\pi\), add \(\pi\) to each principal solution to find all solutions in \([0, 2\pi)\). Use a calculator to find the values of \(x\) correct to four decimal places.
