Question 39

Given that the solutions, for 0≤x≤3600 \leq x \leq 3600≤x≤360, of the equation,

cot⁡2x=k \cot^2 x = k cot2x=k

are tan⁡−1(12),180−tan⁡−1(12),180+tan⁡−1(12)\displaystyle \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right), 180-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right), 180+\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)tan−1(21​),180−tan−1(21​),180+tan−1(21​) and 360−tan⁡−1(12)\displaystyle 360-\tan^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)360−tan−1(21​), find the value of kkk.
