MCQ
If $\cos 3\theta = \alpha \cos \theta + \beta {\cos ^3}\theta ,$ then $(\alpha ,\beta ) = $
  • A
    $(3,\,4)$
  • B
    $(4,\,3)$
  • $( - 3,\,4)$
  • D
    $(3,\, - 4)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$( - 3,\,4)$
c
(c) Given that $\cos 3\theta $

$= \alpha \cos \theta + \beta {\cos ^3}\theta $

But $\cos 3\theta = 4{\cos ^3}\theta - 3\cos \theta $

==> $(\alpha ,\beta ) = ( - 3,\,4)$.
