Thanks for replying!
when you make X the subject does the answer you get have to be within the new range or the one specified in the question?

I get (2X-71.57)= 50.77 and 2x-71.57=(360-50.77)

2X=122.3 and 2X=380.8
X=61.2 X=190.4
in 2nd quadrant, only sin is +ve
then, do 360-190.4=169.6
then, 180-169.6=10.4

final answer should be in range specified in the question
why is it "360-50.7"
I dont undestand this part
"in 2nd quadrant, only sin is +ve
then, do 360-190.4=169.6
then, 180-169.6=10.4"

i had the same problem
what i did first was to make lny the subject ---> lny=(2x+1)/x
now differentiate each side ------> lny becomes 1/y (dy/dx)
differentiate (2x+1)/x using quotient rule ------- [2x-(2x+1)]/x^2 = -1/x^2
therefore------- 1/y (dy/dx)= -1/x^2,
take 1/y to the other side becomes ------− - y/x^2

Well !! That's the only way left to solve this question .. Nyz thanks :)

cos is only +ve in the 4th quadrant, meaning it is -ve in quadrant 2 and 3
cos 169.6 gives u -0.9835....u have to get a +ve value for X... u could just do 180-169.6.
cos 10.4 is +ve...m not sure if this is clear.
