If 2cosθ+sinθ=1(θ=2π), then 7cosθ+6sinθ is equal to:
Options
A21
B2
C211
D546
Correct answer
D. 546
Step-by-step solution
Given 2cosθ+sinθ=1
Squaring both sides, we get
(2cosθ+sinθ)2=12⇒4cos2θ+sin2θ+4sinθcosθ=1⇒3cos2θ+(cos2θ+sin2θ)+4sinθcosθ=1⇒3cos2θ+λ+4sinθcosθ=1⇒3cos2θ+4sinθcosθ=0⇒cosθ(3cosθ+4sinθ)=0⇒3cosθ+4sinθ=0⇒3cosθ=−4sinθ⇒4−3=tanθ=sec2θ−1=4−3(∵tan2θ=sec2θ−1)⇒sec2θ−1=(4−3)2=169⇒sec2θ=169+1=1625⇒secθ=45or cosθ=54
Now, sin2θ+cos2θ=1⇒sin2θ+(54)2=1sin2θ+54=1⇒sin2θ=1−2516=259sinθ=±53$Taking\quad \left(\sin \theta=+\frac{3}{5}\right)because(sinθ=−53) cannot satisfy the given equation.
Therefore; 7 cosθ+6sin\theta
=7 \times 54+6×53=528+518=546
