Trigonometrical Equations
normal
The general solution of the trigonometric equation $tan\, x + tan \,2x + tan\, 3x = tan \,x · tan\, 2x · tan \,3x$ is
A
$x = n\pi$
B
$n\pi ± \frac{\pi }{3}$
C
$x = 2n\pi$
D
$x = \frac{{n\pi }}{3}$ where $n \in I$
Solution
$tan \,x + tan\, 2x + tan\, 3x = tan \,3x – tan \,2x – tan \,x$
$\Rightarrow tan\, x + tan\, 2x = 0$
$\therefore$ $tan\, 2x = tan\, (- x)$
$2x = n\pi – x$
$x =$ $\frac{{n\pi }}{3}$, $n \in I$
