cot(θ)=-1/(sqrt(3))

cot (θ) = - \frac{1}{3}

θ = \frac{2 π}{3} + πn

Solution steps

cot (θ) = - \frac{1}{3}

Simplify

- \frac{1}{3} : - \frac{3}{3}

- \frac{1}{3}

Multiply by the conjugate

\frac{3}{3}

= - \frac{1 \cdot 3}{3 3}

1 \cdot 3 = 3

33 = 3

33

Apply radical rule:

a a = a

33 = 3

= 3

= - \frac{3}{3}

cot (θ) = - \frac{3}{3}

θ = \frac{2 π}{3} + πn

θ = \frac{2 π}{3} + πn

32 cos (θ) + 3 = 6
