Let the other equation of x 2 − ( t a n θ − t a n θ 1 ) x + 1 = 0 as α .
Using the relationship of roots and coefficients, we have α ( 2 + 3 ) =1
α = 2 + 3 1 = 2 − 3
Then α + ( 2 + 3 ) = ( 2 − 3 ) + ( 2 + 3 ) = 4 = t a n θ + t a n θ 1
So that t a n θ + t a n θ 1 = c o s θ s i n θ + s i n θ c o s θ = s i n θ c o s θ 1 = 4
s i n θ c o s θ = 0 . 2 5
