The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the most general value of \( \theta \) that satisfies both equations: 1. \( \tan \theta = \sqrt{3} \) 2. \( \csc \theta = -\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \) ### Step 1: Solve \( \tan \theta = \sqrt{3} \) The tangent function is positive in the first and third quadrants. The reference angle for \( \tan \theta = \sqrt{3} \) is \( \frac{\pi}{3} \). Thus, the general solutions for \( \theta \) are given by: \[ \theta = n\pi + \frac{\pi}{3} \quad \text{for } n \in \mathbb{Z} \] This can be expressed as: \[ \theta = n\pi + \frac{\pi}{3} \quad \text{or} \quad \theta = n\pi + \frac{4\pi}{3} \] ### Step 2: Solve \( \csc \theta = -\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \) Since \( \csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta} \), we can rewrite the equation as: \[ \sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] The sine function is negative in the third and fourth quadrants. The reference angle for \( \sin \theta = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) is \( \frac{\pi}{3} \). Thus, the general solutions for \( \theta \) are: \[ \theta = n\pi + \frac{4\pi}{3} \quad \text{for } n \in \mathbb{Z} \] \[ \theta = n\pi + \frac{5\pi}{3} \quad \text{for } n \in \mathbb{Z} \] ### Step 3: Find common solutions From the solutions derived from both equations, we have: 1. From \( \tan \theta = \sqrt{3} \): - \( \theta = n\pi + \frac{\pi}{3} \) - \( \theta = n\pi + \frac{4\pi}{3} \) 2. From \( \csc \theta = -\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \): - \( \theta = n\pi + \frac{4\pi}{3} \) - \( \theta = n\pi + \frac{5\pi}{3} \) The common solution from both equations is: \[ \theta = n\pi + \frac{4\pi}{3} \] ### Step 4: Write the general solution The most general value of \( \theta \) satisfying both equations is: \[ \theta = 2n\pi + \frac{4\pi}{3} \quad \text{for } n \in \mathbb{Z} \]
