Transcript text: Consider the equation on the restricted interval, which may be difficult to solve by hand.
\[
4 \tan (t)=\cot (t), \quad 0
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the expressions to graph
The given equation is \( 4 \tan(t) = \cot(t) \). We need to graph the expressions on both sides of the equation separately.
Step 2: Rewrite the expressions
Rewrite the given equation in terms of functions to be graphed:
Left side: \( f(t) = 4 \tan(t) \)
Right side: \( g(t) = \cot(t) \)
Step 3: Graph the expressions
Use a graphing utility to plot the functions \( f(t) = 4 \tan(t) \) and \( g(t) = \cot(t) \) on the same set of axes.
Final Answer
The expressions to graph are:
\[ f(t) = 4 \tan(t), \cot(t) \]
