find all solution of the equation, and find the fundamental solutions on the interval
[0, 2pi] tan x= -sqrt3
x=π/3,4π/3 (in quadrants I and III where tan>0)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The answer in the post by @lwsshar3 is incorrect.

This value of tan is the table value.

The correct answer is x = 2pi%2F3, 5pi%2F3 (in quadrants II and IV).

A note for the math composer and a reader: a normal Math writer will never write [0,2pi] for the interval.

Normal Math writer will write [0,2pi).
