7. (a) Show that the equation $$2 \sin x \tan x = \cos x + 5$$ can be expressed in the form $$3 \cos ^ { 2 } x + 5 \cos x - 2 = 0$$ (b) Hence solve the equation $$2 \sin 2 \theta \tan 2 \theta = \cos 2 \theta + 5$$ giving all values of \(\theta\) between \(0 ^ { \circ }\) and \(180 ^ { \circ }\), correct to 1 decimal place.
