Correct answer

C. 3

Step-by-step solution

Given, \sin π2n+cos⁡π2n=n2\frac{\pi}{2 n}+\cos \frac{\pi}{2 n}=\frac{\sqrt{n}}{2}Squaring both sides \left(\sin \frac{\pi}{2 n}+\cos \frac{\pi}{2 n}\rright)^2=\frac{n}{4} \begin{gathered} \sin ^2 \frac{\pi}{2 n}+\cos ^2 \frac{\pi}{2 n}+2 \sin \frac{\pi}{2 n} \cos \frac{\pi}{2 n}=\frac{n}{4}\\ \Rightarrow 1+\sin \frac{\pi}{n}=\frac{n}{4} \Rightarrow \sin \frac{\pi}{n}=\frac{n}{4}-1 \Rightarrow \sin \frac{\pi}{n}=\frac{n-4}{4} \end{gathered}As,As,\quad \sin \frac{\pi}{n}>0, n>2So,So,\quad \frac{n-4}{4}>0 \Rightarrow n>4Also,Also,\sin (π2n)+cos⁡π2n=2sin⁡(π4+π2n).FromEq.(i)2sin⁡(π4+π2n)=n2sin⁡(π4+π2n)=n22Since,\left(\frac{\pi}{2 n}\right)+\cos \frac{\pi}{2 n}=\sqrt{2} \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\pi}{2 n}\right). From Eq. (i) \sqrt{2} \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\pi}{2 n}\right)=\frac{\sqrt{n}}{2} \quad \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\pi}{2 n}\right)=\frac{\sqrt{n}}{2 \sqrt{2}} Since,\sin \left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\pi}{2 n}\right)<1,∀n>2< 1, \forall n>2 We get, \frac{\sqrt{n}}{2 \sqrt{2}}<1⇒n<8< 1 \Rightarrow n < 8 From Eqs. (ii) and (iii) 4 < n < 8 So, n=5,6,7n=5,6,7 Hence, number of integral value of nn is 3 .
