Question

If e(cos2x+cos4x+cos6x+...)loge2{e^{\left( {{{\cos }^2}x + {{\cos }^4}x + {{\cos }^6}x + ...\infty } \right){{\log }_e}2}} satisfies the equation t 2 - 9t + 8 = 0, then the value of 2sinxsinx+3cosx(0<x<π2){{2\sin x} \over {\sin x + \sqrt 3 \cos x}}\left( {0 < x < {\pi \over 2}} \right) is :

Solution

e(cos2x+cos4x+...........)ln2=2cos2x+cos4x+...........{e^{({{\cos }^2}x + {{\cos }^4}x + ...........\infty )\ln 2}} = {2^{{{\cos }^2}x + {{\cos }^4}x + ...........\infty }} = 2cos2x1cos2x{2^{{{{{\cos }^2}x} \over {1 - {{\cos }^2}x}}}} =2cot2x = {2^{{{\cot }^2}x}} Given, t29t+8=0t=1,8{t^2} - 9t + 8 = 0 \Rightarrow t = 1,8 2cot2x=1,8cot2x=0,3 \Rightarrow {2^{{{\cot }^2}x}} = 1,8 \Rightarrow co{t^2}x = 0,3 0<x<π2cotx=30 < x < {\pi \over 2} \Rightarrow \cot x = \sqrt 3 \therefore 2sinxsinx+3cosx=21+3cotx=24=12 {{2\sin x} \over {\sin x + \sqrt 3 \cos x}} = {2 \over {1 + \sqrt 3 \cot x}} = {2 \over 4} = {1 \over 2}
