00:01 Here in this problem we have given cosine 2 theta minus tangent theta is equal to 1 and we are asked to find the solution of equation that lies in the interval 0 .2 pi so here we have cosine 2 theta minus tangent theta is equal to 1 now adding tangent theta on both side we get cosine 2 theta is equal to 1 plus tangent theta since we know that cosine 2 theta 2x2 theta is 2 into cosine square theta minus 1 it would be equals to 1 plus tangent theta now by using the trigonometric formula we get 2 into cosine square theta would be 2 upon 1 plus tangent square theta minus 1 is equals to 1 plus tangent theta by simplifying it we get 1 minus tangent square theta upon 1 plus tangent square theta minus 1 plus tangent theta is equal to 0.
01:38 Now by putting each factor is equal to 0 we get 1 plus tangent theta is equal to 0 or 1 minus tangent theta upon 1 plus tangent square theta minus 1 is equal to 0.
01:59 From here we get tangent theta is equal to minus 1 or here we get tangent square theta plus tangent theta is equal to 0...
