For what value of `k`
the equation `sinx+cos(k+x)+cos(k-x)=2`
has real solutions?
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
`sin x+cot (k+x)+cos (k-x)=2` `rArr 2 cos x. cos k+sin x=2` This equation is of the form `a cos x +b sin x=c` Here `a=2 cos k, b=1` and `c=2` Since for real solutions, `|c| le sqrt(a^(2)+b^(2))`, we have `2 le sqrt(1+4 cos^(2) k)" "or" "cos^(2) k ge 3/4` `rArr sin^(2) k le 1/4" "or" "sin^(2)k-1/4 le 0` or `(sin k+1/2) (sin k-1/2) le 0` or `-1/2 le sin k le 1/2` `rArr (-pi)/6 le k le pi/6`
