    x = π n_1 + π/6 for n_1 element Z

    or x = π n_2 - π/6 for n_2 element Z

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve for x:

    1 - 3 tan^2 (x) = 0

    Subtract 1 from both sides:

    -3 tan^2 (x) = - 1

    Divide both sides by - 3:

    tan^2 (x) = 1/3

    Take the square root of both sides:

    tan (x) = 1/sqrt (3) or tan (x) = - 1/sqrt (3)

    Take the inverse tangent of both sides:

    x = π n_1 + π/6 for n_1 element Z

    or tan (x) = - 1/sqrt (3)

    Take the inverse tangent of both sides:

    Answer: x = π n_1 + π/6 for n_1 element Z

    or x = π n_2 - π/6 for n_2 element Z
