Find one exact solution for tan^2(x) = 3.
--
tan(x) = sqrt(3)
--
In a 30-60 degree right triangle,
if the side opposite the 30 degree
angle is 1, the hypotenuse is 2,
and the side opposite the 60 degree
angle is sqrt(3)
---
tan(60) = opp/hyp = sqrt(3)
----
Your Problem:
Since tan(x) = sqrt(3), x = 60 degrees.
