The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( \csc^2 \theta = 3\sqrt{3} \cot \theta - 5 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the equation using trigonometric identities We know that \( \csc^2 \theta = 1 + \cot^2 \theta \). Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ 1 + \cot^2 \theta = 3\sqrt{3} \cot \theta - 5 \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the equation Rearranging the equation gives us: \[ \cot^2 \theta - 3\sqrt{3} \cot \theta + 1 + 5 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ \cot^2 \theta - 3\sqrt{3} \cot \theta + 6 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Identify coefficients for the quadratic formula In the quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \), we have: - \( a = 1 \) - \( b = -3\sqrt{3} \) - \( c = 6 \) ### Step 4: Apply the quadratic formula Using the quadratic formula \( x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \), we substitute the values: \[ \cot \theta = \frac{-(-3\sqrt{3}) \pm \sqrt{(-3\sqrt{3})^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 6}}{2 \cdot 1} \] This simplifies to: \[ \cot \theta = \frac{3\sqrt{3} \pm \sqrt{27 - 24}}{2} \] \[ \cot \theta = \frac{3\sqrt{3} \pm \sqrt{3}}{2} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression Factoring out \( \sqrt{3} \): \[ \cot \theta = \frac{\sqrt{3}(3 \pm 1)}{2} \] This gives us two possible values: 1. \( \cot \theta = \frac{4\sqrt{3}}{2} = 2\sqrt{3} \) 2. \( \cot \theta = \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{2} = \sqrt{3} \) ### Step 6: Find the corresponding angles 1. For \( \cot \theta = \sqrt{3} \): - This corresponds to \( \theta = 30^\circ \) or \( \theta = \frac{\pi}{6} \) radians. 2. For \( \cot \theta = 2\sqrt{3} \): - This does not correspond to an acute angle since \( \cot \theta \) must be positive and less than \( \infty \). ### Conclusion The acute angle \( \theta \) that satisfies the equation is: \[ \theta = 30^\circ \text{ or } \theta = \frac{\pi}{6} \] ---
