The number of solutions of the equation `tanx+secx=2cosx` lying in the interval `[0,2pi]` is 0 (b) 1 (c) 2 (d) 3

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`tanx+secx = 2cosx`
`=>sinx/cosx +1/cosx = 2cosx`
`=>1+sinx = 2cos^2x`
`=>1+sinx = 2(1-sin^2x)`
`=>1+sinx = 2- 2sin^2x`
`=>2sin^2x+sinx-1 = 0`
`=>2sin^2x+2sinx-sinx-1 = 0`
`=>2sin(sinx+1)-1(sinx+1) = 0`
