You can put this solution on YOUR website!
here is our equation
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28theta%29=3tan%28theta%29%2Bsin%5E2%28theta%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "find f(pi/6)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "step 1 - replace theta with pi/6 and we get
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+3tan%28pi%2F6%29+%2B+sin%5E2%28pi%2F6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "step 2 - find the values of
\n" ); document.write( "3tan(pi/6) and sin^2(pi/6) as
\n" ); document.write( "\"3tan%28pi%2F6%29\" = 3*(sqrt(3)/3) = \"sqrt%283%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%5E2%28pi%2F6%29\" = (1/2)^2 = \"1%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "So, we get
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+3tan%28pi%2F6%29+%2B+sin%5E2%28pi%2F6%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "which becomes
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+sqrt%283%29+%2B+1%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "If however you meant the original problem as:
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28theta%29=3tan%28theta%29%2Bsin%282%28theta%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "then we have
\n" ); document.write( "step 1 - replace theta with pi/6 and we get
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+3tan%28pi%2F6%29+%2B+sin%282%28pi%2F6%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "step 2 - find the values of
\n" ); document.write( "3tan(pi/6) and sin(2(pi/6)) as
\n" ); document.write( "\"3tan%28pi%2F6%29\" = 3*(sqrt(3)/3) = \"sqrt%283%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sin%282%28pi%2F6%29%29\" = \"sin%28pi%2F3%29\" = \"sqrt%283%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "--
\n" ); document.write( "So, we get
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+3tan%28pi%2F6%29+%2B+sin%282%28pi%2F6%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "which becomes
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+sqrt%283%29+%2B+sqrt%283%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28pi%2F6%29+=+3sqrt%283%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
