  4. D5π12\frac{5 \pi}{12}

Correct answer

C. π12\frac{\pi}{12}

Step-by-step solution

For 0<θ<π20 < \theta < \frac{\pi}{2}, ∑m=16cosec⁡[θ+(m−1)π4]cosec⁡(θ+mπ4)=42⇒∑m=16sin⁡[θ+mπ4−(θ+(m−1)π4)]sin⁡π4{sin⁡(θ+(m−1)π4)sin⁡(θ+mπ4)}=42\begin{array}{r} \sum_{m=1}^6 \operatorname{cosec}\left[\theta+\frac{(m-1) \pi}{4}\right]\operatorname{cosec}\left(\theta+\frac{m \pi}{4}\right)\\ =4 \sqrt{2}\\ \Rightarrow \sum_{m=1}^6 \frac{\sin \left[\theta+\frac{m \pi}{4}-\left(\theta+\frac{(m-1) \pi}{4}\right)\right]}{\sin \frac{\pi}{4}\left\{\sin \left(\theta+\frac{(m-1) \pi}{4}\right) \sin \left(\theta+\frac{m \pi}{4}\right)\right\}}\\ =4 \sqrt{2} \end{array}⇒∑m=16cot⁡(θ+(m−1)π4)−cot⁡(θ+mπ4)1/2=42\begin{array}{r} \Rightarrow \sum_{m=1}^6 \frac{\cot \left(\theta+\frac{(m-1) \pi}{4}\right)-\cot \left(\theta+\frac{m \pi}{4}\right)}{1 / 2}\\ =4 \sqrt{2} \end{array} ⇒∑m=16[cot⁡(θ+(m−1)π4)−cot⁡(θ+mπ4)]=4⇒cot⁡(θ)−cot⁡(θ+π4)+cot⁡(θ+π4)−cot⁡(θ+2π4)+…+cot⁡(θ+5π4)−cot⁡(θ+6π4)=4⇒cot⁡θ−cot⁡(3π2+θ)=4⇒cot⁡θ+tan⁡θ=4⇒tan⁡2θ−4tan⁡θ+1=0⇒(tan⁡θ−2)2−3=0⇒(tan⁡\ttheta−2+3)(tan⁡\ttheta−2−3)=0⇒tan⁡\ttheta=2−3 or tan⁡\ttheta=2+3⇒θ=π12;θ=5π12⇒θ∈(0,π2)\begin{aligned}& \Rightarrow \quad \sum_{m=1}^6\left[\cot \left(\theta+\frac{(m-1) \pi}{4}\right)\right.\\ & \left.-\cot \left(\theta+\frac{m \pi}{4}\right)\right]=4 \\ & \Rightarrow \cot (\theta)-\cot \left(\theta+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)+\cot \left(\theta+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\\ & -\cot \left(\theta+\frac{2 \pi}{4}\right)+\ldots+\cot \left(\theta+\frac{5 \pi}{4}\right)\\ & -\cot \left(\theta+\frac{6 \pi}{4}\right)=4 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \cot \theta-\cot \left(\frac{3 \pi}{2}+\theta\right)=4 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \cot \theta+\tan \theta=4 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \tan ^2 \theta-4 \tan \theta+1=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad(\tan \theta-2)^2-3=0 \\ & \Rightarrow(\tan \ttheta-2+\sqrt{3})(\tan \ttheta-2-\sqrt{3})=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \tan \ttheta=2-\sqrt{3} \text{ or }\\ & \tan \t theta=2+\sqrt{3}\\ & \Rightarrow \theta=\frac{\pi}{12}; \theta=\frac{5 \pi}{12} \Rightarrow \theta \in \left(0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\\ & \end{aligned} $
