f(x)=λ((cos 2x)/(λcos x −sin x))  x=arctan t ⇒ cos x =(1/(√(t^2 +1))); sin x =(t/(√(t^2 +1)))  f(t)=λ(((t−1)(t+1))/((t−λ)(√(t^2 +1))))  f′(t)=−λ((λt^3 −3t^2 +3λt−1)/((t−λ)(t^2 +1)^(3/2) ))  t^3 −(3/λ)t^2 +3t−(1/λ)=0  t=z+(1/λ)  z^3 +((3(λ^2 −1))/λ^2 )z+((2(λ^2 −1))/λ^3 )=0  D=(((λ^2 −1)^2 )/λ^4 )≥0∣λ∈R  z_1 =(((λ^2 −1))^(1/3) /λ)(((λ−1))^(1/3) −((λ+1))^(1/3) )  t_1 =z_1 +(1/λ)=(1/λ)(1+((λ^2 −1))^(1/3) (((λ−1))^(1/3) −((λ+1))^(1/3) ))  x_1 =arctan ((1/λ)(1+((λ^2 −1))^(1/3) (((λ−1))^(1/3) −((λ+1))^(1/3) )))

$${f}\left({x}\right)=\lambda\frac{\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{2}{x}}{\lambda\mathrm{cos}\:{x}\:−\mathrm{sin}\:{x}} \\ $$ $${x}=\mathrm{arctan}\:{t}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{cos}\:{x}\:=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\sqrt{{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}};\:\mathrm{sin}\:{x}\:=\frac{{t}}{\sqrt{{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}} \\ $$ $${f}\left({t}\right)=\lambda\frac{\left({t}−\mathrm{1}\right)\left({t}+\mathrm{1}\right)}{\left({t}−\lambda\right)\sqrt{{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}} \\ $$ $${f}'\left({t}\right)=−\lambda\frac{\lambda{t}^{\mathrm{3}} −\mathrm{3}{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3}\lambda{t}−\mathrm{1}}{\left({t}−\lambda\right)\left({t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{3}/\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$ $${t}^{\mathrm{3}} −\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\lambda}{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3}{t}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\lambda}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $${t}={z}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\lambda} \\ $$ $${z}^{\mathrm{3}} +\frac{\mathrm{3}\left(\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}\right)}{\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} }{z}+\frac{\mathrm{2}\left(\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}\right)}{\lambda^{\mathrm{3}} }=\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $${D}=\frac{\left(\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }{\lambda^{\mathrm{4}} }\geqslant\mathrm{0}\mid\lambda\in\mathbb{R} \\ $$ $${z}_{\mathrm{1}} =\frac{\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}}}{\lambda}\left(\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda−\mathrm{1}}−\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda+\mathrm{1}}\right) \\ $$ $${t}_{\mathrm{1}} ={z}_{\mathrm{1}} +\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\lambda}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\lambda}\left(\mathrm{1}+\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}}\left(\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda−\mathrm{1}}−\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda+\mathrm{1}}\right)\right) \\ $$ $${x}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{arctan}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\lambda}\left(\mathrm{1}+\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1}}\left(\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda−\mathrm{1}}−\sqrt[{\mathrm{3}}]{\lambda+\mathrm{1}}\right)\right)\right) \\ $$
