If - π < θ < π , the equation cos 3 θ + 1 x 2 + 2 cos 2 θ - 1 x + 1 - 2 cos θ = 0 has more than two roots for
Options
- Ano value of θ
- Bone value of θ
- Ctwo value of θ
- Dall values of θ
Correct answer
A. no value of θ
Step-by-step solution
Given equation has more than two roots if it is an identity ⇒ cos ⁡ 3 θ + 1 = 0 ;  2 cos ⁡ 2 θ - 1 = 0  a n d  1 - 2 cos ⁡ θ = 0 ⇒ cos ⁡3 θ = - 1 ⇒ θ = ± π 3 which does not satisfy 2 cos ⁡ 2 θ - 1 = 0 Hence, no value possible
