    sin (2x) = 12/13

    cos (2x) = 5/13

    tan (2x) = 12/5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    cos x = 3/√13, x is in the first quadrant.

    Use Pythagorean identity to find sin x.

    sin²x + cos²x = 1

    sin²x + (3/√13) ² = 1

    sin²x + 9/13 = 1

    sin²x = 4/13

    sin x = ±2/√13

    Since x is in the first quadrant, sin x = 2/√13.

    Use double angle formulas:

    sin (2x) = 2 sin x cos x

    sin (2x) = 2 (2/√13) (3/√13)

    sin (2x) = 12/13

    cos (2x) = cos²x - sin²x

    cos (2x) = (3/√13) ² - (2/√13) ²

    cos (2x) = 9/13 - 4/13

    cos (2x) = 5/13

    tan (2x) = sin (2x) / cos (2x)

    tan (2x) = (12/13) / (5/13)

    tan (2x) = 12/5
