Solution

θ=0.06656…+πn
+1
Degrees
θ=3.81407…∘+180∘n
Solution steps
3tan(θ)+16​=5
Multiply both sides by 3tan(θ)+1
3tan(θ)+16​=5
Multiply both sides by 3tan(θ)+13tan(θ)+16​(3tan(θ)+1)=5(3tan(θ)+1)
Simplify6=5(3tan(θ)+1)
6=5(3tan(θ)+1)
Switch sides5(3tan(θ)+1)=6
Divide both sides by 5
5(3tan(θ)+1)=6
Divide both sides by 555(3tan(θ)+1)​=56​
Simplify3tan(θ)+1=56​
3tan(θ)+1=56​
Move 1to the right side
3tan(θ)+1=56​
Subtract 1 from both sides3tan(θ)+1−1=56​−1
Simplify
3tan(θ)+1−1=56​−1
Simplify 3tan(θ)+1−1:3tan(θ)
3tan(θ)+1−1
Add similar elements: 1−1=0
=3tan(θ)
Simplify 56​−1:51​
56​−1
Convert element to fraction: 1=51⋅5​=−51⋅5​+56​
Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions: ca​±cb​=ca±b​=5−1⋅5+6​
−1⋅5+6=1
−1⋅5+6
Multiply the numbers: 1⋅5=5=−5+6
Add/Subtract the numbers: −5+6=1=1
=51​
3tan(θ)=51​
3tan(θ)=51​
3tan(θ)=51​
Divide both sides by 3
3tan(θ)=51​
Divide both sides by 333tan(θ)​=351​​
Simplify
33tan(θ)​=351​​
Simplify 33tan(θ)​:tan(θ)
33tan(θ)​
Divide the numbers: 33​=1=tan(θ)
Simplify 351​​:151​
