If $\tan \theta+\tan 2 \theta+\sqrt{3} \tan \theta \tan 2 \theta=\sqrt{3}$, then the general values of $\theta$ are
- $(3 n+1) \frac{\pi}{3}, n \in Z$
- $(3 n+1) \frac{\pi}{9}, n \in Z$
- $(3 n+1) \frac{\pi}{6}, n \in Z$
- $(2 n+1) \frac{\pi}{9}, n \in Z$
Solution
It is given that
$
\begin{aligned}
& \tan \theta+\tan 2 \theta+\sqrt{3} \tan \theta \tan 2 \theta=\sqrt{3} \\
& \Rightarrow \frac{\tan \theta+\tan 2 \theta}{1-\tan \theta \tan 2 \theta}=\sqrt{3}=\tan \frac{\pi}{3} \\
& \Rightarrow \tan (3 \theta)=\tan \frac{\pi}{3} \Rightarrow 3 \theta=n \pi+\frac{\pi}{3}, n \in Z \\
& \Rightarrow \theta=(3 n+1) \frac{\pi}{9}, n \in Z
\end{aligned}
$
Hence, option (b) is correct
