9. In this question you must show all stages of your working.

Solutions relying entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.

DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA

(a) Show that

3 cos θ (tan θ sin θ + 3) = 11 – 5cos θ

may be written as

3 cos2 θ – 14 cos θ + 8 = 0
(3)
(b) Hence solve, for 0 < x < 360°

3 cos 2x (tan 2x sin 2x + 3) = 11 – 5cos 2x

giving your answers to one decimal place.
