If the sum of the roots of the equation ...

If the sum of the roots of the equation `sin^(2)theta=k,(0ltk lt 1)` lying in `[0,2pi]` is equal to the angles of a n-sided regular polygon, then the value of n is

A

6

B

4

C

2

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`sin^(2)theta = k` gives four roots
`theta, pi-theta pi + theta` and `2pi - theta`
`rArr` the sum of the roots `=4pi=(n-2)pi rArr n = 6`.
