The equation 2sin^(2)((x)/(2))cos^(2)x=x...

The equation `2sin^(2)((x)/(2))cos^(2)x=x+(1)/(x),0 lt x le(pi)/(2)` has

A

one real solution

B

no real solution

C

infinitely many real solutions

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We know that
`2"sin"^(2)(x)/(2)cosxle2` and `x+(1)/(2)ge2` for `0 lt x lt (pi)/(2)`
Thus, `2"sin"^(2)(x)/(2)cosx=x,x+(1)/(2)` holds good only when each side is eaul to 2. We observe that `x+(1)/(x)=2` for x=1 only.
But, `2"sin"^(2)(x)/(2) cos x ne 2` for x=1.
Hence, the given equation has no real solution.
