Final Answer: \(\sin 2 x = \boxed{0.923}\), \(\cos 2 x = \boxed{-0.385}\), \(\tan 2 x = \boxed{-2.4}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Given that \(\tan x = \frac{3}{2}\) and \(x\) is in the first quadrant, we can use the Pythagorean identity \(\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1\) to find \(\sin x\) and \(\cos x\).

Step 2 :Using the given value of \(\tan x\), we can find \(\sin x = 0.832\) and \(\cos x = 0.555\).

Step 3 :We can then use the double angle formulas to find \(\sin 2x\), \(\cos 2x\), and \(\tan 2x\).

Step 4 :Using the double angle formulas, we find that \(\sin 2x = 0.923\), \(\cos 2x = -0.385\), and \(\tan 2x = -2.4\).

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\sin 2 x = \boxed{0.923}\), \(\cos 2 x = \boxed{-0.385}\), \(\tan 2 x = \boxed{-2.4}\)
