3*\tan (x) - 1/*\/ -5*cos(x)  = 0
$$\sqrt{- 5 \cos{\left(x \right)}} 3 \left(\tan^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 1\right) = 0$$
Detail solution
Given the equation
$$\sqrt{- 5 \cos{\left(x \right)}} 3 \left(\tan^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 1\right) = 0$$
transform
$$3 \sqrt{5} \sqrt{- \cos{\left(x \right)}} \left(\tan^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 1\right) = 0$$
$$\sqrt{- 5 \cos{\left(x \right)}} 3 \left(\tan^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 1\right) = 0$$
Do replacement
$$w = \tan{\left(x \right)}$$
Expand the expression in the equation
$$\sqrt{5} \sqrt{- \cos{\left(x \right)}} \left(3 w^{2} - 3\right) = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$3 \sqrt{5} w^{2} \sqrt{- \cos{\left(x \right)}} - 3 \sqrt{5} \sqrt{- \cos{\left(x \right)}} = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*w^2 + b*w + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$w_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$w_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 3 \sqrt{5} \sqrt{- \cos{\left(x \right)}}$$
$$b = 0$$
$$c = - 3 \sqrt{5} \sqrt{- \cos{\left(x \right)}}$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(0)^2 - 4 * (3*sqrt(5)*sqrt(-cos(x))) * (-3*sqrt(5)*sqrt(-cos(x))) = 180*(-cos(x))

The equation has two roots.
w1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

w2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$w_{1} = 1$$
$$w_{2} = -1$$
do backward replacement
$$\tan{\left(x \right)} = w$$
Given the equation
$$\tan{\left(x \right)} = w$$
- this is the simplest trigonometric equation
This equation is transformed to
$$x = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(w \right)}$$
Or
$$x = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(w \right)}$$
, where n - is a integer
substitute w:
$$x_{1} = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(w_{1} \right)}$$
$$x_{1} = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(1 \right)}$$
$$x_{1} = \pi n + \frac{\pi}{4}$$
$$x_{2} = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(w_{2} \right)}$$
$$x_{2} = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(-1 \right)}$$
$$x_{2} = \pi n - \frac{\pi}{4}$$
