Solve the equation 3sin^2(x) + sin(x) + 8 = 9cos^2(x), -180<X<180. Then find smallest positive solution of 3sin^2(2O-30) + sin(2O-30) + 8 = 9cos^2(2O-30).

Cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1. Therefore Cos^2(x) = 1 - sin^2(x). So equation becomes 3Sin^2(x) + sin(x) + 8 = 9(1 - sin^2(x)). Then becomes 12sin^2(x) + sin(x) - 1This is quadratic equation, solved to (4sin(x)...
