Options
- An π
- Bn π + - 1 n π / 3
- Cn π + - 1 n π / 8
- DNone of these
Correct answer
A. n π
Step-by-step solution
The system of equations has a non-trivial solution if and only if sin 3 θ - 2 3 cos 2 θ 8 - 7 2 14 - 11 = 0 Applying R 2 → R 2 + 4 R 1 , R 3 → R 3 + 7 R 1 , we get, sin 3 θ - 2 3 cos 2 θ + 4 sin 3 θ 0 5 2 + 7 sin 3 θ 0 10 = 0 Expanding along C 2 , we get, 2 cos 2 θ + 4 sin 3 θ - 2 + 7 sin 3 θ = 0 ⇒ 2 - 2 cos 2 θ - sin 3 θ = 0 ⇒ 4 sin 2 θ - 3 sin θ - 4 sin 3 θ = 0 ⇒ sin θ 4 sin 2 θ + 4 sin θ - 3 = 0 ⇒ sin θ 2 sin θ - 1 2 sin θ + 3 = 0 ⇒ sin θ = 0 or sin θ = 1 / 2 .
