The most general value for which `tantheta=-1costheta=1/(sqrt(2))i s(n in Z)` n`pi+(7pi)/4` (b) `npi+(-1)^n(7pi)/4` `2npi+(7pi)/4` (d) none of these

A

`n pi+(7 pi)/4`

B

`n pi+(-1)^(n) (7pi)/4`

C

`2npi+(7pi)/4`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Since `tan theta lt 0` and `cos theta gt 0, theta` lies in the fourth quadrant. Then `theta=7 pi//4`.
Hence, the general value of `theta` is `2n pi+7 pi//4, n in Z`.
