SOLUTION: Explain why the equations tan x = 1/3
and cos x =1/3
each have two solutions
in the interval [0, 2π), even though the period of y = tan x is π and the period
of y = c

The question "why" is not applicable in this case. It doesn't make sense.
OK. Let the John's family has two children, and Collins' family has two children.
Now an inspector comes and ask "Why John's family has two children and Collins' family has two children?"
Does it make sense? Does this question makes sense? Does this "why" makes sense?
Same is with the question to this problem.
