If `x_(1)` and `x_(2)` are two distind roots of the equation `a cos x+b sinx=c`, then `tan"" (x_(1)+x_(2))/(2)` is equal to

A

`(a)/(b)`

B

`(b)/(a)`

C

`(c)/(a)`

D

`(a)/(c)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`a cos x+b sin x=c`
`rArr (a(1-tan^(2)(x)/(x)))/(1+tan^(2)(x)/(2))+(2btan((x)/(2)))/(1+tan^(2)((x)/(2)))=c`
`rArr(c+a)tan^(2)((x)/(2))-2btan((x)/(2))+c-a=0`
`rARr tan((x_(1))/(2))+tan ((x^(2))/(2))=(2b)/(c+a)`
and `tan((x_(1))/(2))tan((x_(2))/(2))=(c-a)/(c+a)`
`rArr tan((x_(1)+x_(2))/(2))=((2b)/(c+a))/(1-(c-a)/(c+a))=(2b)/(2a)=(b)/(a)`
