7)b)i)

Can anyone please explain I don't understand the method in the marking scheme and why don't we use -1<.......<1?
for 1/3 tan^2 x to be convergent,
it should be less then 1 n as x is greater then zero then it should be greater then zero,so this implies
0<1/3 tan^2 x<3
now make x subject
multiply through out by 3 then take square root through out n then tan inverse
this will give u the answer.
if still not clear,dont hesitate to ask :)
