For what angles between 0 and 360 degrees is the tangent equal to the square root of 3?

(This is basic; you should know it. Think of the 30-60-90 right triangle....)

sin(x)=√3cos(x) for 0^0 ≤x ≤360°
Simplify to Sin(x)/Cos(x) = Tan(x) = √3
Then arcTan = √3, x = 60 and 240 degrees
There are two intersections (x,y)= (60°,√3) and (240°,√3)
Tangent is positive in the 1st and 4th quadrant which this shows.
