Hey just to make sure im correct i came up with

x= 2pi/3 and x=5pi/3

are these all the solutions.....
 
You can check yourself for principal solutions, since the tangent is negative in quadrants II and III.
 
Are you only concerned with the roots on the first rotation? In other words, is 8pi/3 a soution?

Quadrant III, are you sure?

I need to find all solutions, but i only came up with those 2
Have you considered that the function y = tan(x) is periodic? What is the period?
