Question

The number of solutions of the equation 32tan2x+32sec2x=81,0xπ4{32^{{{\tan }^2}x}} + {32^{{{\sec }^2}x}} = 81,\,0 \le x \le {\pi \over 4} is :

Options

Solution

(32)tan2x+(32)sec2x=81{(32)^{{{\tan }^2}x}} + {(32)^{{{\sec }^2}x}} = 81 (32)tan2x+(32)1+tan2x=81 \Rightarrow {(32)^{{{\tan }^2}x}} + {(32)^{1 + {{\tan }^2}x}} = 81 (32)tan2x=8133 \Rightarrow {(32)^{{{\tan }^2}x}} = {{81} \over {33}} taking log of base 32 both side, \Rightarrow tan 2 x = log32(8133){\log _{32}}\left( {{{81} \over {33}}} \right) \Rightarrow tan x = log32(8133)\sqrt {{{\log }_{32}}\left( {{{81} \over {33}}} \right)} As value of log32(8133)\sqrt {{{\log }_{32}}\left( {{{81} \over {33}}} \right)} belongs to (0, 1). In interval 0xπ4\,0 \le x \le {\pi \over 4} only one solution.
