The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \tan \theta + \tan \left( \theta + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) + \tan \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right) = 3 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the tangent addition formula We know that: \[ \tan(a + b) = \frac{\tan a + \tan b}{1 - \tan a \tan b} \] Using this, we can express \( \tan \left( \theta + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) \) and \( \tan \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right) \). ### Step 2: Calculate \( \tan \left( \theta + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) \) Using the addition formula: \[ \tan \left( \theta + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) = \frac{\tan \theta + \sqrt{3}}{1 - \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}} \] ### Step 3: Calculate \( \tan \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right) \) Similarly, we have: \[ \tan \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right) = \frac{\tan \theta - \sqrt{3}}{1 + \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}} \] ### Step 4: Substitute back into the equation Now we substitute these values back into the original equation: \[ \tan \theta + \frac{\tan \theta + \sqrt{3}}{1 - \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}} + \frac{\tan \theta - \sqrt{3}}{1 + \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}} = 3 \] ### Step 5: Combine the fractions To combine the fractions, we need a common denominator: \[ (1 - \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3})(1 + \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}) \] This simplifies to: \[ 1 - 3 \tan^2 \theta \] Thus, we rewrite the equation as: \[ \tan \theta (1 - 3 \tan^2 \theta) + (\tan \theta + \sqrt{3})(1 + \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}) + (\tan \theta - \sqrt{3})(1 - \tan \theta \cdot \sqrt{3}) = 3(1 - 3 \tan^2 \theta) \] ### Step 6: Simplify the equation After simplifying, we get: \[ 9 \tan \theta - 3 \tan^3 \theta = 3(1 - 3 \tan^2 \theta) \] Rearranging gives: \[ 3 \tan^3 \theta - 9 \tan \theta + 9 = 0 \] ### Step 7: Factor the cubic equation Factoring out 3, we have: \[ \tan^3 \theta - 3 \tan \theta + 3 = 0 \] ### Step 8: Solve for \( \tan \theta \) Let \( x = \tan \theta \). We can use numerical methods or synthetic division to find the roots of this cubic equation. ### Step 9: Find the general solution Once we find the values of \( x \), we can find \( \theta \) using: \[ \theta = \tan^{-1}(x) + n\pi, \quad n \in \mathbb{Z} \] ### Final Solution The final solution will be in the form: \[ \theta = n\frac{\pi}{3} + \frac{\pi}{12}, \quad n \in \mathbb{Z} \]

To solve the equation \( \tan \theta + \tan \left( \theta + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) + \tan \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right) = 3 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the tangent addition formula We know that: \[ \tan(a + b) = \frac{\tan a + \tan b}{1 - \tan a \tan b} \] Using this, we can express \( \tan \left( \theta + \frac{\pi}{3} \right) \) and \( \tan \left( \theta + \frac{2\pi}{3} \right) \). ...
