If 0 < α, β < π and cos α + cos β - (α + β) = (3)/(2) , then the...

If 0<α,β<π0 < \alpha, \beta < \pi and cosα+cosβ−cos⁡(α+β)=32cos \alpha + cos \beta - \cos \left(\alpha + \beta\right) = \dfrac{3}{2}, then the value of 3sinα+cosα\sqrt{3}sin \alpha + cos \alpha is equal to

Correct answer

2

Step-by-step solution

2cos⁡(α+β2)cos⁡(α−β2)−(2cos2(α+β2)−1)=322\cos \left(\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right)\cos \left(\dfrac{\alpha - \beta}{2}\right) - \left(2co{s}^{2}\left(\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right) - 1\right) = \dfrac{3}{2}
⇒4cos2(α+β2)−4cos⁡(α+β2)cos⁡(α−β2)+1=0⇒ 4co{s}^{2}\left(\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right) - 4\cos \left(\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right)\cos \left(\dfrac{\alpha - \beta}{2}\right) + 1 = 0
⇒(2cos⁡(α+β2)−cos⁡(α−β2))2+sin2(α−β2)=0⇒ {\left(2\cos \left(\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right) - \cos \left(\dfrac{\alpha - \beta}{2}\right)\right)}^{2} + si{n}^{2}\left(\dfrac{\alpha - \beta}{2}\right) = 0
⇒2cosα+β2=cosα−β2⇒ 2cos\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{2} = cos\dfrac{\alpha - \beta}{2} and sin⁡(α−β2)=0\sin \left(\dfrac{\alpha - \beta}{2}\right) = 0
⇒α=β⇒ \alpha = \beta and 2cosα=1⇒α=π3(0<α,β<π)2cos \alpha = 1 ⇒ \alpha = \dfrac{\pi}{3}\left(0 < \alpha, \beta < \pi\right)
So, sinα=32sin \alpha = \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} and cosα=12cos \alpha = \dfrac{1}{2}
⇒3sinα+cosα=2⇒ \sqrt{3}sin \alpha + cos \alpha = 2
