Find tan(x+y) given sinx=3sin(x+2y)
My reference gives the solution 2tany but how do I prove it ?
My Attempt
3=sin(x+2y)sinx3sinx=sinx.cos2y+cosx.sin2y
3sinx=2sinx.cos2ysinx+2cosx.siny.cosy=2cosy.sin(x+y)sinx
4sinx=2cosy.sin(x+y)sin(x+y)=2.sinxcosy
cos(x+y)=sinxsinytan(x+y)=2tany

Hint:
As we need to eliminate x
let x+y=k,  x=ky
sin(yk)=3sin(ky+2y)
Method#1:
Expand sin(yk),sin(y+k) and group sink,cosk
Method#2:
sin(yk)sin(y+k)=31
