`E=atheta+btheta^(2)`
It is a quadratic equation
`btheta^(2)+a theta-E=0`
or `theta=(-a+-sqrt(a^(2)+4bE))/(2b)`
Now consider. `sqrt(a^(2)+4bE)` for solution
`sqrt(a^(2)+4bE)`
`=sqrt((30xx10^(-6))^(2)+4 xx0.08xx10^(-6)xx6xx10^(-3))`
`=5.3xx10^(-5)`
`therefore theta=(-3xx10^(-5)+5.3xx10^(-5))/(2xx0.08xx10^(-6))=144^ (@)C`
