Question

Let S={θ[π,π]{±π2}:sinθtanθ+tanθ=sin2θ}S = \left\{ {\theta \in [ - \pi ,\pi ] - \left\{ { \pm \,\,{\pi \over 2}} \right\}:\sin \theta \tan \theta + \tan \theta = \sin 2\theta } \right\}. If T=θScos2θT = \sum\limits_{\theta \, \in \,S}^{} {\cos 2\theta } , then T + n(S) is equal to :

Solution

tanθ(sinθ+1)sin2θ=0\tan \theta(\sin \theta+1)-\sin 2 \theta=0 tanθ(sinθ+12cos2θ)=0tanθ=0 or 2sin2θ+sinθ1=0(2sinθ+1)(sinθ1)=0sinθ=12 or 1\begin{aligned} &\tan \theta\left(\sin \theta+1-2 \cos ^{2} \theta\right)=0 \\\\ &\Rightarrow \tan \theta=0 \text { or } 2 \sin ^{2} \theta+\sin \theta-1=0 \\\\ &\Rightarrow(2 \sin \theta+1)(\sin \theta-1)=0 \\\\ &\Rightarrow \sin \theta=\frac{-1}{2} \text { or } 1 \end{aligned} But, sinθ=1\sin \theta=1 not possible θ=0,π,π,π6,5π6\theta=0, \pi,-\pi,-\frac{\pi}{6}, \frac{-5 \pi}{6} n(S)=5\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})=5 T=cos2θ=cos0+cos2π+cos(2π)+cos(5π3)+cos(π3)T=\sum \cos 2 \theta=\cos 0^{\circ}+\cos 2 \pi+\cos (-2 \pi) +\cos \left(-\frac{5 \pi}{3}\right)+\cos \left(-\frac{\pi}{3}\right) = 4
