0606/12/M/J/23 — Question 6 · 7 marks

(a)
Given that coty=12+2θ\mathrm{cot}\,y = \dfrac{1}{2} + 2\theta and secx=4θ\mathrm{sec}\,x = 4 - \theta, find yy in terms of xx.

(b)
Solve cosec(2ϕ+3π4)=23\mathrm{cosec}\left(2\phi + \dfrac{3\pi}{4}\right) = \dfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}} for πϕπ-\pi \leqslant \phi \leqslant \pi, giving answers in terms of π\pi.
