Solve each equation over the interval [0°, 360°). Write solutions as exact values or to the nearest tenth, as appropriate.
(cot θ ―√3) (2 sin θ + √3) = 0

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the equation is a product of two factors equal to zero: \((\cot \theta - \sqrt{3})(2 \sin \theta + \sqrt{3}) = 0\). According to the zero product property, set each factor equal to zero separately: \(\cot \theta - \sqrt{3} = 0\) and \(2 \sin \theta + \sqrt{3} = 0\).
Solve the first equation \(\cot \theta - \sqrt{3} = 0\) by isolating \(\cot \theta\): \(\cot \theta = \sqrt{3}\). Recall that \(\cot \theta = \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\), and find the angles \(\theta\) in \([0^\circ, 360^\circ)\) where this is true.
Solve the second equation \(2 \sin \theta + \sqrt{3} = 0\) by isolating \(\sin \theta\): \(\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\). Determine the angles \(\theta\) in \([0^\circ, 360^\circ)\) where the sine has this value.
For each equation, use the unit circle or known special angles to find all solutions within the interval \([0^\circ, 360^\circ)\). Remember that \(\cot \theta = \sqrt{3}\) corresponds to angles where tangent is \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\), and \(\sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) corresponds to specific reference angles in the third and fourth quadrants.
Combine all solutions from both equations to write the complete solution set for \(\theta\) in the interval \([0^\circ, 360^\circ)\). Express answers as exact values or decimal approximations as appropriate.

Trigonometric Equations and Zero-Product Property

Solving trigonometric equations often involves factoring expressions and applying the zero-product property, which states that if a product of factors equals zero, at least one factor must be zero. This allows breaking down complex equations into simpler ones to solve individually.
