If the angle between the vectors a=hat(i...

If the angle between the vectors `a=hat(i)+cosxhat(j)+hat(k) and b=(sin^(2)x-sinx)hat(i)-cosxhat(j)+(3-4sinx)hat(k)` is obtuse and `xin(o, (pi)/(2))`, then the exhaustive set of values of 'x' is equal to

A

`x in (0,(pi)/(6))`

B

`x in ((pi)/(6),(pi)/(2))`

C

`x in ((pi)/(6),(pi)/(3))`

D

`x in ((pi)/(3),(pi)/(2))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

` because vec(a).vec(b)lt0`
`implies (sin^(2)x-sinx)-cos^(2)x+3-4sinxlt0`
`implies2 sin ^(2)x-5sinx+2lt0`
`impliesubrace((sin x-2))_((-)ve) (2sinx-1)lt 0 impliessinxgt(1)/(2)`
`implies x epsilon ((pi)/(6),(pi)/(2))`
