Find the value of x in each of the following six questions.
Give the value in degrees or radians.
#1701. 2sin3x = √3
#1702.
#1703. √3 sin x = cos x
#1704. tan x = sin45°cos45° + sin30°
#1705. √3 tan 2x = cos60° + sin45°cos45°
#1706. cos 2x = cos60°cos30° + sin60°sin30°

Re: 10 second questions
Answers #1566, #1690, and #1698:-
Answer to #1566:- Correct, Devantè!
Devantè, Your answer to #1698 in Post #1020 was correct. It is 0.5.
Regarding #1690, you just missed the bus! it is 20 digits! 64 x 0.3 is 19.2 and Antilog of 19.2 consists 20 digits, does't it?

Ouch... my mistake.
Are you sure 0.5 is the answer to 1698? I get sqrt(1-1.5) = sqrt(-0.5)

Re: 10 second questions
@JaneFairfax; oh, you're right. I made an error in calculation... (sqrt(3)/2)^2 is 3/4.
