Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the equation \( \tan x + \tan 2x + \tan 3x = \tan x \tan 2x \tan 3x \) for \( x \) in the interval \([0, \pi]\), we can use a known identity for the tangent function. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Recognize the Identity**: We know that the equation \( \tan a + \tan b + \tan c = \tan a \tan b \tan c \) holds true when \( a + b + c = n\pi \) for some integer \( n \). Here, we can set \( a = x \), \( b = 2x \), and \( c = 3x \). 2. **Set Up the Equation**: ...
