How many solutions does have for ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. 3, at and
- Step 1: has solutions because the period of tangent is .
- Step 2: In these are ; the next, , is beyond .
Answer
3.
Why not the others: Two solutions covers only ; four and six come from counting asymptotes or quarter turns, not solutions.
