Question
Minimum value of $5{\sin ^2}\theta + 4{\cos ^2}\theta $ is

Answer

d
(d) Let $f(\theta ) = 5{\sin ^2}\theta + 4{\cos ^2}\theta = 4 + {\sin ^2}\theta $ 

$\therefore f(\theta ) \ge 4 + 0$         $( \because {\sin ^2}\theta  \ge 0)$ 

$\therefore $ The minimum value of $f(\theta )$ is $4.$
