Solve 6 sin 2θ tan θ = 4, where 0º < θ < 90º

A.

18.43º

B.

30.00º

C.

35.26º

D.

19.47º

Correct answer is C

6 sin 2θ tan θ = 4, where 0º < θ < 90º

sin 2θ = 2sin θ cos θ and tanθ = \frac{sinθ}{cosθ}

= 6 x 2sin θ cos θ x \frac{sin θ}{cos θ} = 4

= sin^2 θ = 4

= sin^2 θ = \frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{3}

=sin θ = \frac{\sqrt1}{3}=\frac{1}{\sqrt3}

= θ = sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt3})

∴ θ = 35.26º
