## Solving Trigonometric Equations

### Problem Statement:
Solve for all degree solutions and θ if 0° ≤ θ < 360°. Do not use a calculator. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

\[ \sqrt{2} \tan \theta + 2 \sin \theta \tan \theta = 0 \]

### Solution:

#### (a) All Degree Solutions
Let \( k \) be any integer. The solutions are given in terms of \( k \):

1. \( \theta = 180^\circ + 360^\circ k, 225^\circ + 360^\circ k, 315^\circ + 360^\circ k \)

This option is selected as the correct solution.

2. \( \theta = 360^\circ k, 450^\circ + 360^\circ k, 45^\circ + 180^\circ k \)

3. \( \theta = 0^\circ + 180^\circ k, 450^\circ + 360^\circ k, 450^\circ + 180^\circ k \)

4. \( \theta = 360^\circ k, 225^\circ + 360^\circ k, 315^\circ + 360^\circ k \)

5. \( \theta = 0^\circ + 180^\circ k, 225^\circ + 360^\circ k, 315^\circ + 360^\circ k \)

The selected solution is noted with a blue circle (indicating the correct answer) and a red X mark outside the selection box.

#### (b) Principal Solutions (0° ≤ θ < 360°)

For this specific interval, the solution is:

\[ \theta = 180^\circ, 225^\circ, 315^\circ \]

The answer is mentioned in a box and marked with a red X, indicating that there might be an error.

### Notes:
- Ensure to verify the solution by solving the trigonometric equation manually to understand why the provided answers have been marked correct or incorrect.
- The multiple-choice format helps in identifying the general solutions explicitly while the boxed values target a specific interval requirement for \( θ \).
