Using the identity we have
This is a quadratic in . Let x = . Then we can write:
Solve for x using the quadratic formula:
This gives x = 1, -1/2
Since we need to find values for which give ,
The inv. cos of 1 = 0 deg.
The inv. cos of -1/2 = 120 deg.
Since the ranges from 0 to 360 deg. and since = 240 deg., we need to include 240 deg.
So the answers are deg, deg, deg
