The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( 4 \csc^2(\pi(a+x)) + a^2 - 4a = 0 \) for the value of \( a \) that allows for a real solution, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Equation Start by isolating the trigonometric part of the equation: \[ 4 \csc^2(\pi(a+x)) = 4a - a^2 \] This can be rewritten as: \[ \csc^2(\pi(a+x)) = \frac{4a - a^2}{4} \] ### Step 2: Set Conditions for Cosecant Recall that \( \csc^2(\theta) \) is always greater than or equal to 1 for real \( \theta \). Therefore, we set the following inequality: \[ \frac{4a - a^2}{4} \geq 1 \] ### Step 3: Multiply by 4 To eliminate the fraction, multiply both sides by 4: \[ 4a - a^2 \geq 4 \] ### Step 4: Rearrange the Inequality Rearranging gives us: \[ -a^2 + 4a - 4 \geq 0 \] or \[ -a^2 + 4a - 4 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Factor the Quadratic We can factor the quadratic equation: \[ -(a^2 - 4a + 4) \geq 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ -(a-2)^2 \geq 0 \] ### Step 6: Analyze the Inequality The expression \(-(a-2)^2\) is non-positive, which implies: \[ (a-2)^2 = 0 \] This means: \[ a - 2 = 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad a = 2 \] ### Conclusion The value of \( a \) for which the equation has a real solution is: \[ \boxed{2} \]
