The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( 2\sqrt{a} \sin^2 x + \sqrt{a - 3} \sin 2x = 5 + \sqrt{a} \) and find the least value of \( a \) for which it has at least one solution, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the equation We start with the given equation: \[ 2\sqrt{a} \sin^2 x + \sqrt{a - 3} \sin 2x = 5 + \sqrt{a} \] Recall that \( \sin 2x = 2 \sin x \cos x \) and \( \sin^2 x = 1 - \cos^2 x \). We can express \( \sin 2x \) in terms of \( \sin x \) and \( \cos x \). ### Step 2: Substitute \( \sin 2x \) Substituting \( \sin 2x \) gives us: \[ 2\sqrt{a} \sin^2 x + \sqrt{a - 3} (2 \sin x \cos x) = 5 + \sqrt{a} \] This simplifies to: \[ 2\sqrt{a} \sin^2 x + 2\sqrt{a - 3} \sin x \cos x = 5 + \sqrt{a} \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the equation Rearranging the equation, we have: \[ 2\sqrt{a - 3} \sin x \cos x - \sqrt{a} (1 - 2\sin^2 x) = 5 \] Using the identity \( 1 - 2\sin^2 x = \cos 2x \), we can rewrite it as: \[ \sqrt{a - 3} \sin 2x - \sqrt{a} \cos 2x = 5 \] ### Step 4: Analyze the equation The equation can be expressed in the form: \[ R \sin(2x + \phi) = 5 \] where \( R = \sqrt{(\sqrt{a - 3})^2 + (\sqrt{a})^2} \) and \( \tan \phi = \frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{a - 3}} \). ### Step 5: Find the condition for at least one solution For the equation \( R \sin(2x + \phi) = 5 \) to have at least one solution, we need: \[ R \geq 5 \] Calculating \( R \): \[ R = \sqrt{(a - 3) + a} = \sqrt{2a - 3} \] Thus, the condition becomes: \[ \sqrt{2a - 3} \geq 5 \] ### Step 6: Solve the inequality Squaring both sides gives: \[ 2a - 3 \geq 25 \] \[ 2a \geq 28 \] \[ a \geq 14 \] ### Conclusion The least value of \( a \) for which the equation has at least one solution is: \[ \boxed{14} \]
