tanx.tan2x=1

expand tan2x and take denominator to the other side.

u will get tanx =1/1.732 which implies x=30 deg.

so substitute the value in the given expression to get the answer.

tanx tan2x=1
tan2x=1/tanx
tan2x=cotx
tan2x=tan(π/2-x)
2x=kπ+π/2-x
x=kπ/3+π/6

tanxtan2x=1
Or, tanx(2tanx/1-tan²x)=1. [tan2x=2tanx/1-tan²x]
Or,2tan²x/1-tan²x=1
Or, 2tan²x=1-tan²x
Or,3tan²x=1
Or,tan²x=1/3
Or,tanx=1/3
Hence X=30°
 
Sin²(2x)+tan²(2x)
=Sin²60°+tan²+60°
=(√3/2)²+(√3)²
=3/4+3
=15/4
