Start with the equation:
\(\frac{\tan \theta + 2 \sin \theta}{\tan \theta - 2 \sin \theta} = 3\)
Cross-multiply to get:
\(\tan \theta + 2 \sin \theta = 3(\tan \theta - 2 \sin \theta)\)
Expand the right side:
\(\tan \theta + 2 \sin \theta = 3 \tan \theta - 6 \sin \theta\)
Rearrange terms:
\(2 \tan \theta - 8 \sin \theta = 0\)
Factor out \(2 \sin \theta\):
\(2 \sin \theta (\tan \theta - 4 \cos \theta) = 0\)
Since \(\sin \theta = 0\) is not valid in the given range, solve:
\(\tan \theta = 4 \cos \theta\)
Using \(\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\), we have:
\(\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} = 4 \cos \theta\)
\(\sin \theta = 4 \cos^2 \theta\)
Using \(\cos^2 \theta = 1 - \sin^2 \theta\), substitute:
\(\sin \theta = 4(1 - \sin^2 \theta)\)
\(\sin \theta = 4 - 4 \sin^2 \theta\)
Rearrange to form a quadratic equation:
\(4 \sin^2 \theta + \sin \theta - 4 = 0\)
Using the quadratic formula, solve for \(\sin \theta\):
\(\sin \theta = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 64}}{8}\)
\(\sin \theta = \frac{-1 \pm 9}{8}\)
\(\sin \theta = 1\) or \(\sin \theta = -\frac{5}{4}\)
Only \(\sin \theta = 1\) is valid, leading to \(\theta = 90^\circ\), but this is not in the solution range.
Thus, solve \(\cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}\):
\(\theta = 75.5^\circ\) only.
