Question 760602: Hi I have a question about solving trig equations:
The equation 2tan^2x+10 tanx+12 can be factored. It's solutions are tan x=-2 and tan x=-3. How many solutions of tan x=-2 exist on the interval 0=x=2pi. This i really Urgent, so thank you in advance Found 2 solutions by Alan3354, stanbon:Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The equation 2tan^2x+10 tanx+12 can be factored. It's [sic] solutions are tan x=-2 and tan x=-3. How many solutions of tan x=-2 exist on the interval 0=x=2pi.

If tanx = -2 x is an angle in QII or x is an angle in QIV.

In QII the answer is tan^-1(-2) = 2.0344 radians
In QIV the answer is tan^-1(-2) = 3.1416 radians
