Given the inequality:
$$\cot{\left(x - \frac{2 \pi}{3} \right)} \geq \frac{\left(-1\right) \sqrt{3}}{3}$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$\cot{\left(x - \frac{2 \pi}{3} \right)} = \frac{\left(-1\right) \sqrt{3}}{3}$$
Solve:
Given the equation
$$\cot{\left(x - \frac{2 \pi}{3} \right)} = \frac{\left(-1\right) \sqrt{3}}{3}$$
- this is the simplest trigonometric equation
This equation is transformed to
$$x + \frac{\pi}{3} = \pi n + \operatorname{acot}{\left(- \frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} \right)}$$
Or
$$x + \frac{\pi}{3} = \pi n - \frac{\pi}{3}$$
, where n - is a integer
Move
$$\frac{\pi}{3}$$
to right part of the equation with the opposite sign, in total:
$$x = \pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3}$$
$$x_{1} = \pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3}$$
$$x_{1} = \pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3}$$
This roots
$$x_{1} = \pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3}$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} \leq x_{1}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{1} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$\left(\pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3}\right) - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$\pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3} - \frac{1}{10}$$
substitute to the expression
$$\cot{\left(x - \frac{2 \pi}{3} \right)} \geq \frac{\left(-1\right) \sqrt{3}}{3}$$
$$\cot{\left(\left(\pi n - \frac{2 \pi}{3} - \frac{1}{10}\right) - \frac{2 \pi}{3} \right)} \geq \frac{\left(-1\right) \sqrt{3}}{3}$$
