2sin(3x)+3cos(3x) = 0
2sin(3x)=-3cos(3x)
sin(3x)/cos(3x) = tan(3x) = -3/2
x = (tan-1(-3/2) + nπ)/3 = (-tan-1(3/2) + nπ)/3
To stay within [0,2π], n = 1,2,3,4

x = (tan-1(-3/2) + nπ)/3 = (-tan-1(3/2) + nπ)/3
To stay within [0,2π], n = 1,2,3,4
2sin(3x) = - 3cos(3x)
(sin(3x))/ (cos (3x)) = -3/2
tan(3x) = -3/2
tan(3x) = tan θ , where θ = tan-1(-3/2)
3x = κπ + θ, κ any integer
x = κ(π/3) + θ/3
x = κ(π/3) + (1/3) tan-1(-3/2)
x = κ(π/3) − (1/3) tan-1(3/2)
