MCQ
${2^{\sin \theta }} + {2^{\cos \theta }}$ is greater than
  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • B
    $\sqrt 2 $
  • C
    ${2^{\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}}}$
  • ${2^{\left( {1 - \,\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}} \right)}}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
${2^{\left( {1 - \,\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}} \right)}}$
d
(d) $\frac{1}{2}\left[ {{2^{\sin \theta }} + {2^{\cos \theta }}} \right] \ge \sqrt {{2^{\sin \theta }}{2^{\cos \theta }}} $

(${\rm{A}}{\rm{.M}}{\rm{.}} \ge {\rm{G}}{\rm{.M}}{\rm{.}}$)

==> ${2^{\sin \theta }} + {2^{\cos \theta }} \ge {2.2^{(\sin \theta + \cos \theta )/2}}$ .....(i)

Now $(\sin \theta + \cos \theta ) = \sqrt 2 \sin (\theta + \pi /4) \ge - \sqrt 2 $

For all real $\theta$,

${2^{\sin \theta }} + {2^{\cos \theta }} \ge {2.2^{(\sin \theta + \cos \theta )/2}} > 2\,.\,{2^{ - \sqrt 2 /2}}$

==> ${2^{\sin \theta }} + {2^{\cos \theta }} \ge {2^{1 - (1/\sqrt 2 )}}$.
