If `tan^2x-5secx=1` is satisfied by exactly seven distinct values of `x in [0,((2n+1)pi)/2],n in N ,` then the greatest value of `n` is________.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
7

Here `(2 sec x +1) (sec x - 3)=0` which gives two values of `theta` in each of `[0, 2pi], (2pi, 4pi], (4pi, 6pi]` and one value in `(6pi, 6pi +(3pi)/2)`.
