Question 24
a.

Show that the equation 5−tan⁡θcos⁡θ=6cos⁡2θ5 - \tan\theta \cos\theta = 6\cos^2\theta5−tanθcosθ=6cos2θ can be expressed in the form 6sin⁡2θ−sin⁡θ−1=06\sin^2 \theta - \sin \theta - 1 = 06sin2θ−sinθ−1=0

b.

The diagram shows parts of the curves y=6cos⁡2θy = 6\cos^2\thetay=6cos2θ and y=5−tan⁡θcos⁡θy = 5 - \tan\theta \cos\thetay=5−tanθcosθ, where θ \theta\,θ is in degrees. Solve the inequality 5−tan⁡θcos⁡θ>6cos⁡2θ5 - \tan\theta \cos\theta > 6\cos^2\theta5−tanθcosθ>6cos2θ for 0∘≤θ<360∘0^\circ \leq \theta < 360^\circ0∘≤θ<360∘
