If $\tan \theta + \tan 2\theta + \tan 3\theta = \tan \theta \tan 2\theta \tan 3\theta $, then the general value of $\theta $ is
  • A
    $n\pi $
  • $\frac{{n\pi }}{6}$
  • C
    $n\pi - \frac{\pi }{4} \pm \alpha $
  • D
    $\frac{{n\pi }}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{{n\pi }}{6}$
b
(b) $\tan \theta + \tan 2\theta + \tan 3\theta = \tan \theta \tan 2\theta \tan 3\theta $

$\tan 6\theta = \frac{{\tan \theta + \tan 2\theta + \tan 3\theta - \tan \theta \tan 2\theta \tan 3\theta }}{{1 - \sum \tan \theta \tan 2\theta }}$

$= 0, $ (from the given condition)

$ \Rightarrow $ $6\theta = n\pi \Rightarrow \theta = n\pi /6$.

Trick : In such type of problems, the general value of $\theta $ is given by $\frac{{n\pi }}{{{\rm{sum \,of\, number\, of\, }}\theta }}$.

So the general value of $\theta $ is $\frac{{n\pi }}{{1 + 2 + 3}} = \frac{{n\pi }}{6}$.

  • A
    $2n\pi + \frac{\pi }{4}$
  • $2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}$
  • C
    $2n\pi - \frac{\pi }{4}$
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: B.
$2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}$
b
(b) $2{\cos ^2}\theta - (\sqrt 2 + 1)\cos \theta - 1 + \frac{{(\sqrt 2 + 1)}}{{\sqrt 2 }} = 0$

$ \Rightarrow $ $\cos \theta = \frac{{(\sqrt 2 + 1) \pm \sqrt {{{(\sqrt 2 + 1)}^2} - \frac{8}{{\sqrt 2 }}} }}{4}$

$ \Rightarrow $ $\cos \theta = \cos \left( {\frac{\pi }{4}} \right)$ 

$ \Rightarrow $ $\theta = 2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}$.

Trick : Since $\theta = \frac{\pi }{4}$ satisfies the equation and therefore the general value should be $2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}$.

The solution of the equation $\sec \theta - {\rm{cosec}}\theta = \frac{4}{3}$ is
  • $\frac{1}{2}[n\pi + {( - 1)^n}{\sin ^{ - 1}}(3/4)]$
  • B
    $n\pi + {( - 1)^n}{\sin ^{ - 1}}(3/4)$
  • C
    $\frac{{n\pi }}{2} + {( - 1)^n}{\sin ^{ - 1}}(3/4)$
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{2}[n\pi + {( - 1)^n}{\sin ^{ - 1}}(3/4)]$
a
(a) $3(\sin \theta - \cos \theta ) = 4\sin \theta \cos \theta $

==> $3(\sin \theta - \cos \theta ) = 2\sin 2\theta $

Squaring both sides, we get $9(1 - S) = 4{S^2},$

where $S = \sin 2\theta $ or $4{S^2} + 9S - 9 = 0$.

$\therefore $ $\,(S + 3)\,(4S - 3) = 0$ or $S = \frac{3}{4}$ as $S \ne - 3$

or $\sin 2\theta = \frac{3}{4} = \sin \alpha $

$\therefore $ $2\theta = n\pi + {( - 1)^n}\alpha $

or $\theta = \frac{1}{2}\,\left[ {n\pi + {{( - 1)}^n}{{\sin }^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{3}{4}} \right)} \right]$.

The general solution of the equation $(\sqrt 3 - 1)\sin \theta + (\sqrt 3 + 1)\cos \theta = 2$ is
  • $2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4} + \frac{\pi }{{12}}$
  • B
    $n\pi + {( - 1)^n}\frac{\pi }{4} + \frac{\pi }{{12}}$
  • C
    $2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4} - \frac{\pi }{{12}}$
  • D
    $n\pi + {( - 1)^n}\frac{\pi }{4} - \frac{\pi }{{12}}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4} + \frac{\pi }{{12}}$
a
(a) Let $\sqrt 3 + 1 = r\cos \alpha $ and $\sqrt 3 - 1 = r\sin \alpha $.

Then $r = \sqrt {{{(\sqrt 3 + 1)}^2} + {{(\sqrt 3 - 1)}^2}} = 2\sqrt 2 $

$\tan \alpha = \frac{{\sqrt 3 - 1}}{{\sqrt 3 + 1}} = \frac{{1 - (1/\sqrt 3 )}}{{1 + (1/\sqrt 3 )}} = \tan \left( {\frac{\pi }{4} - \frac{\pi }{6}} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \alpha = \frac{\pi }{{12}}$

The given equation reduces to

$2\sqrt 2 \cos (\theta - \alpha ) = 2 $

$\Rightarrow \cos \left( {\theta - \frac{\pi }{{12}}} \right) = \cos \frac{\pi }{4}$

$ \Rightarrow $ $\theta - \frac{\pi }{{12}} = 2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4} $

$\Rightarrow \theta = 2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4} + \frac{\pi }{{12}}$.

The equation ${\sin ^4}x + {\cos ^4}x + \sin 2x + \alpha = 0$ is solvable for
  • A
    $ - \frac{1}{2} \le \alpha \le \frac{1}{2}$
  • B
    $ - 3 \le \alpha \le 1$
  • $ - \frac{3}{2} \le \alpha \le \frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    $ - 1 \le \alpha \le 1$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$ - \frac{3}{2} \le \alpha \le \frac{1}{2}$
c
(c) ${\sin ^4}x + {\cos ^4}x + \sin 2x + \alpha = 0$

==> ${({\sin ^2}x + {\cos ^2}x)^2} - 2{\sin ^2}x{\cos ^2}x + \sin 2x + \alpha = 0$

==> ${\sin ^2}2x - 2\sin 2x - 2 - 2\alpha = 0$

Let $sin 2x = y$. Then the given equation becomes

${y^2} - 2y - 2(1 + \alpha ) = 0$,

where $ - 1 \le y \le 1$,  $({\rm{  }} - 1 \le \sin 2x \le 1)$

For real, discriminant

$ \ge 0$$ \Rightarrow $$3 + 2\alpha \ge 0$

$ \Rightarrow $ $\alpha \ge - \frac{3}{2}$

Also $ - 1 \le y \le 1 \Rightarrow - 1 \le 1 - \sqrt {3 + 2\alpha } \,\, \le 1$

$ \Rightarrow $ $3 + 2\alpha \le 4 \Rightarrow \alpha \le \frac{1}{2}$.

Thus $ - \frac{3}{2} \le \alpha \le \frac{1}{2}$.

The only value of $x$ for which ${2^{\sin x}} + {2^{\cos x}} > {2^{1 - (1/\sqrt 2 )}}$ holds, is
  • $\frac{{5\pi }}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{{3\pi }}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{\pi }{2}$
  • D
    All values of $x$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{{5\pi }}{4}$
a
(a) Since $A.M.$ $ \ge $ $G.M.$

$\Rightarrow$  $\frac{1}{2}({2^{\sin x}} + {2^{\cos x}}) \ge \sqrt {{2^{\sin x}}{{.2}^{\cos x}}} $

$ \Rightarrow $ ${2^{\sin x}} + {2^{\cos x}} \ge {2.2^{\frac{{\sin x + \cos x}}{2}}}$

$ \Rightarrow $${2^{\sin x}} + {2^{\cos x}} \ge {2^{1 + \frac{{\sin x + \cos x}}{2}}}$

and we know that $\sin x + \cos x \ge - \sqrt 2 $

$\therefore $ ${2^{\sin x}} + {2^{\cos x}} > {2^{1 - (1/\sqrt 2 )}}$, for $x = \frac{{5\pi }}{4}$.

  • A
    $(2n + 1)\frac{\pi }{4}$
  • $\frac{4}{{(2n + 1)\pi }}$
  • C
    $4\pi (2n + 1)$
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{4}{{(2n + 1)\pi }}$
b
(b)$\tan (\cot x) = \cot (\tan x)$

$ \Rightarrow $ $\tan (\cot x) = \tan \left( {\frac{\pi }{2} - \tan x} \right)$ 

$ \Rightarrow $ $\cot x = n\pi  + \frac{\pi }{2} - \tan x $

$\Rightarrow \cot x + \tan x = n\pi  + \frac{\pi }{2}$

$ \Rightarrow $ $\frac{2}{{\sin 2x}} = n\pi  + \frac{\pi }{2}$

$\Rightarrow \sin 2x = \frac{2}{{n\pi  + \frac{\pi }{2}}} = \frac{4}{{(2n + 1)\pi }}$

The number of pairs $(x, y)$ satisfying the equations $\sin x + \sin y = \sin (x + y)$ and $|x| + |y| = 1$ is
  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • $6$
  • D
    $\infty $
Answer
Correct option: C.
$6$
c
(c) The first equation can be written as

$2\sin \frac{1}{2}(x + y)\cos \frac{1}{2}(x - y) = 2\sin \frac{1}{2}(x + y)\cos \frac{1}{2}(x + y)$

$\therefore $ Either $\sin \frac{1}{2}(x + y) = 0$ or $\sin \frac{1}{2}x = 0$ or $\sin \frac{1}{2}y = 0$

Thus $x + y = - 1,\,\,x - y = - 1$.

When $x + y = 0,$ we have to reject $x + y = 1$ and check with the options or $x + y = - 1$ and solve it with $x - y = 1$ or $x - y = - 1$

which gives $\left( {\frac{1}{2},\,\, - \frac{1}{2}} \right)$ or $\left( { - \frac{1}{2},\,\frac{1}{2}} \right)$ as the possible solution.

Again solving with $x = 0$, we get $(0,{\rm{ }} \pm 1)$ and solving with $y = 0$, we get $( \pm {\rm{ }}1,\,\,0)$ as the other solution.

Thus we have six pairs of solution for $ x$ and $y$.

    $x = \frac{{37\pi }}{{24}},\,y = \frac{{7\pi }}{{24}}$
  • C
    $x = \frac{\pi }{4},\,y = \frac{\pi }{2}$
  • $a$ or $b$ both
Answer
Correct option: D.
$a$ or $b$ both
d
(d) $\tan (x - y) = 1$$ \Rightarrow $ $x - y = \frac{\pi }{4},\,\frac{{5\pi }}{4}$
(Considering values which lie between $0$ and $2\pi $)
$\sec (x + y) = \frac{2}{{\sqrt 3 }}$ $ \Rightarrow $ $x + y = \frac{\pi }{6},\,\frac{{11\pi }}{6}$
(Consider values which lie between $0$ and $2\pi $)
Since $x,\,y$ are positive, therefore $x + y > x - y$
Thus we have $x + y = \frac{{11\pi }}{6}$ and $x - y = \frac{\pi }{4}$
or $x + y = \frac{{11\pi }}{6}$ and $x - y = \frac{{5\pi }}{4}$
Solving these two systems of equations, we get
$x = \frac{{25\pi }}{{24}}$ and $y = \frac{{19\pi }}{{24}}$ or $x = \frac{{37\pi }}{{24}}$ and $y = \frac{{7\pi }}{{24}}$.

$ \Rightarrow $ $(\sin x + 1) = 2{\cos ^2}x$
$ \Rightarrow (\sin x + 1) = 2(1 - \sin x)\,(1 + \sin x)$
$ \Rightarrow $ $(1 + \sin x)\,[2\,(1 - \sin x) - 1] = 0$$ \Rightarrow $$2\,(1 - \sin x) - 1 = 0$
$ae = \sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}} = \sqrt {{{\cos }^2}\alpha + {{\sin }^2}\alpha } = 1$ otherwise $\cos x = 0$ and $\tan x,\,\sec x$ will be undefined]
==> $\sin x = \frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow x = \frac{\pi }{6},\,\frac{{5\pi }}{6}$ in $(0,\,2\pi )$.

Let $f(x) = \cos px + \sin x$ be periodic, then $p$ must be
  • Rational
  • B
    Irrational
  • C
    Positive real number
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: A.
Rational
a
(a) Let $f(x)$ be periodic with period $\lambda ,$

then $\sin \,(x + \lambda ) + \cos p\,(x + \lambda ) = \sin x + \cos px,\,\,\forall \,\,x \in R$

Putting $x = 0$ and replace $\lambda $ by $ - \lambda $, we have

$\sin \lambda + \cos p\lambda = 1$ and $ - \sin \lambda + \cos p\lambda = 1$

Solving these, we get $\sin \lambda = 0$ so $\lambda = n\pi $ and

$\cos p\lambda = 1$ so $p\lambda = 2m\pi .$

As $\lambda \ne 0,\,\,m$ and $n$ are non-zero integers.

Hence $p = \frac{{2m\pi }}{\lambda },$ which is rational.

The value of $n \in Z$ for which the function $f(x) = \frac{{\sin nx}}{{\sin (x/n)}}$ has $4\pi $ as its period, is
  • $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $5$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$2$
a
(a) For , $n = 2,$

$f(x) = \frac{{\sin \,2x}}{{\sin \,\left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)}} = \frac{{4\,\sin \,\left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)\,\cos \,\left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)\,\cos x}}{{\sin \,\left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)}}$

$ = 4\,\cos \,\left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)\,\cos x$

The period of $\cos x = 2\pi $ and that of $\cos \frac{x}{2}$ is $4\pi ,$ so period of

$\frac{{\sin \,\,2x}}{{\sin \,\left( {\frac{x}{2}} \right)}}$ is $4\pi .$

For $n = 3,$

$\frac{{\sin \,\left\{ {3\,(x + 4\pi )} \right\}}}{{\sin \,\left\{ {\frac{{(x + 4\pi )}}{3}} \right\}}} = \frac{{\sin \,3x}}{{\sin \,\left( {\frac{x}{3} + \frac{{4\pi }}{3}} \right)}} \ne \frac{{\sin \,3x}}{{\sin \,\left( {\frac{x}{3}} \right)}}$

So, $4\pi $ is not the period for $n = 3.$

Similarly, we can see that $4\pi $ is not the period of $\frac{{\sin \,nx}}{{\sin \left( {\frac{x}{n}} \right)}}$ for $n = 4$ and $5$ also.

given equation can be written as

$3 \,sin\, \theta - 4sin^3\theta = 4sin\theta \,sin\, 2\theta \,sin4\theta$

hence either $sin\, \theta = 0 \Rightarrow\, \theta = n\pi$

or        $3 - 4sin^2\theta = 4\, sin\, 2\theta \,sin \,4\theta$

  • $28$
  • B
    $14$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $2$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$28$
a
$tan \,(5\pi \,cos\, \theta ) = cot\, (5 \pi\, sin\, \theta )$

$tan \,(5\pi \,cos\, \theta ) = tan\, \left( {\frac{\pi }{2}\, - \,5\pi \sin \theta } \right)$

$5\pi \,cos\theta = n\pi + \pi /2 - 5\pi \,sin\theta$

$(cos\theta + sin\theta ) = \left( {\frac{{2n + 1}}{{10}}} \right)$

$\Rightarrow -1 < \frac{{2n + 1}}{{10\sqrt 2 }} < 1$
