The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \(2\sin^2\theta + 3\cos\theta = 3\) under the condition \(0^\circ < \theta < 90^\circ\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearrange the equation We start with the equation: \[ 2\sin^2\theta + 3\cos\theta = 3 \] We can rearrange it to isolate the trigonometric functions: \[ 2\sin^2\theta = 3 - 3\cos\theta \] ### Step 2: Use the Pythagorean identity Recall the Pythagorean identity: \[ \sin^2\theta + \cos^2\theta = 1 \] From this, we can express \(\sin^2\theta\) in terms of \(\cos\theta\): \[ \sin^2\theta = 1 - \cos^2\theta \] Substituting this into our rearranged equation gives: \[ 2(1 - \cos^2\theta) = 3 - 3\cos\theta \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation Expanding and simplifying: \[ 2 - 2\cos^2\theta = 3 - 3\cos\theta \] Rearranging gives: \[ 2\cos^2\theta - 3\cos\theta + 1 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Solve the quadratic equation Now we have a quadratic equation in \(\cos\theta\): \[ 2x^2 - 3x + 1 = 0 \] where \(x = \cos\theta\). We can use the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Here, \(a = 2\), \(b = -3\), and \(c = 1\): \[ x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1}}{2 \cdot 2} \] \[ x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9 - 8}}{4} \] \[ x = \frac{3 \pm 1}{4} \] This gives us two solutions: \[ x = \frac{4}{4} = 1 \quad \text{and} \quad x = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 5: Determine the angles Now we find \(\theta\) for these values of \(x\): 1. For \(x = 1\): \(\cos\theta = 1\) implies \(\theta = 0^\circ\) (not in the range). 2. For \(x = \frac{1}{2}\): \(\cos\theta = \frac{1}{2}\) implies \(\theta = 60^\circ\). ### Conclusion Thus, the value of \(\theta\) is: \[ \theta = 60^\circ \]
