You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve each equation for theta if theta is greater than or equal to 0 degrees and less than 360 degrees.
sec theta - 2tan theta= 0
----
1/cos(theta) - 2sin(theta)/cos(theta) = 0
----
Multiply thru by cos(theta) to get:
1 - 2sin(theta) = 0
----
2sin(theta) = 1
sin(theta) = 1/2
---
theta = pi/6 or (5/6)pi
