If tan 3 θ = cot(θ - 22°), where 3 θ is an angle, find the value of θ.

SSC Selection Post 2022 Matriculation Level Question Paper (02-Aug-2022) (Shift-4)
The correct answer is

28°

The correct answer is 28°.

In problems involving angles like this, where a condition like "$3\theta$ is an acute angle" is given, it helps restrict the possible values of $\theta$. Complementary angle identities are very useful when an equation involves different trigonometric functions (like tan and cot, or sin and cos) on opposite sides. Always verify your final answer by substituting it back into the original equation and checking if any given conditions (like an angle being acute) are met.
