just use the most basic identity of all ...
3sin^2θ + 2cosθ = 2
3(1-cos^2θ) + 2cosθ = 2
3 - 3cos^2θ + 2cosθ = 2
3cos^2θ - 2cosθ = -1
(3cosθ+1)(cosθ-2) = 0
cosθ = -1/3 or cosθ = 2 (❌)
so cosθ = -1/3 ==> θ = {109.5° or 250.5°} + 360k°
Solve 3𝑠𝑖𝑛^2𝜃 + 2 cos 𝜃 = 2, for values of 𝜃 such that 0
≤ 𝜃 ≤ 360

where k is any integer.
Interesting that the bot had to get in the last word again, even though
it couldn't solve the problem initially.
