solve, for 0<x<90°,
4 cos 3x − 1 = 2 sin 3x tan 3x
preferably using quadratic
think
please help would be appreciated

Fourth line should be
4 cos2 3x - cos 3x = 2 sin2 3x
4 cos2 3x - cos 3x = 2(1 - cos2 3x\
4 cos2 3x - cos 3x = 2 - 2 cos2 3x
6 cos2 3x - cos 3x - 2 = 0
Use u substitution or the Quadratic Formula

4 cos 3x − 1 = 2 sin 3x tan 3x
4cos3x-1 = 2sin3x(sin3x/cos3x)
" = 2(sin3x)^2/cos3x
4(cos3x)^2-1=2(sin3x)^2
2(cos3x)-1 =sin3x
The best I can do is x=12.33°=-.0041945.......
