`cosalpha` is a root of the equation `25 x^2+5x-12=0,-1

A

`24/25

B

`-12/25`

C

`-24/25`

D

`20/25`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C
`:'x=(-5+-sqrt(25+1200))/50)=(-5+-35)/50=30/50,(-40)/50`
or `cos alpha =3/5,(-4)/5`
But `-1ltlxt0`
`:.cos alpha =-4/5` [lies in II and III quadrants]
`:.sin alpha=3/5` [lies in II quadrant]
`:.sin alpha=-3/5` [lies in III quadrant]
`:.sin 2 alpha=2.sinalpha.cos alpha=-24/25` [lies i II quadrant]
`:.sin 2 alpha =2.sin alpha . cos alpha =24/25` [lies in III quadrant]
