If `cos^(-1)sqrt(p)+cos^(-1)sqrt(1-p)+cos^(-1)sqrt(1-q)=(3pi)/4,` then the value of `q` is 1 (b) `1/(sqrt(2))` (c) `1/3` (d) `1/3`

A

1

B

`(1)/(sqrt2)`

C

`(1)/(3)`

D

`(1)/(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`cos^(-1) sqrtp + cos^(-1) sqrt(1 - p) + cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -q) = (3pi)/(4)`
or `cos^(-1) sqrtp + cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -(sqrtp)^(2)) + cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -q) = (3pi)/(4)`
or `cos^(-1) sqrtp + sin^(-1) sqrtp + cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -q) = (3pi)/(4)`
or `(pi)/(2) + cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -q) = (3pi)/(4)`
or `cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -q) = (3pi)/(4) - (pi)/(2)`
or `cos^(-1) sqrt(1 -q) = (pi)/(4)`
or `sqrt(1-q) = (pi)/(4)`
or `sqrt(1 -q) = cos.(pi)/(4)`
or `sqrt(1 -q) = (1)/(sqrt2)`
or `q = (1)/(2)`
