Show that cos⁡θ(9tan⁡θ+4tan⁡θ)≡5sin⁡θ+4sin⁡θ\cos \theta \left( 9 \tan \theta + \frac{4}{\tan \theta} \right) \equiv 5 \sin \theta + \frac{4}{\sin \theta}cosθ(9tanθ+tanθ4​)≡5sinθ+sinθ4​ for θ≠nπ2\theta \neq \frac{n\pi}{2}θ=2nπ​, where nnn is an integer.

Hence solve, for 0<x<2π0 < x < 2\pi0<x<2π, the equation cos⁡x(9tan⁡x+4tan⁡x)=12sin⁡x−2\cos x \left( 9 \tan x + \frac{4}{\tan x} \right) = 12 \sin x - 2cosx(9tanx+tanx4​)=12sinx−2 giving your answers to 3 significant figures.
