The set of values of `lambda in R` such that `sin^2theta+costheta=lambdacos^2theta` holds for some `theta,` is (a)`(-oo,1]` (b) (`-oo,-1]` (c)`varphi` (d) `[-1,oo` )

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`sin^2theta+costheta=lambdacos^2theta`
`sin^2theta/cos^2theta+cos^2theta/cos^2theta=lambdacos^2theta/cos^2theta`
`tan^2theta+sectheta=lambda`
`sec^2theta-1+sectheta-lambda=0`
`sec^2theta+sectheta-(lambda+1)=0`
`sectheta=(-1pmsqrt(1+4(lambda+1)))/2`
`=(-1pmsqrt(4lambda+5))/2`
`4lambda+5>=0`
