let tan(x+pi/6)tanx=k, implies tanx(tanx+(1/√3))/(1-(tanx/√3))=k,implies tan2x +tanx((k+1/√3))-k=0, this quadratic equation in tanx has a non-negative discriminant. thus,(k+1)2/3≥ -4k, k2 +14k +1≥0,the "roots" of this quadratic inequality are -7-4√3 and -7+4√3. therefore, the set of possible values is (-∞,-7-4√3] U [-7+4√3,∞)
