Question

For a positive integer n let (fn(θ) (1 + sec θ)(1 + sec 2θ)(1 + sec 22θ)...(1+ sec 2nθ), then

Options

A.f2 = 1
B.f3 = 1
C.f4 = 1
D.f5 = 1

Solution

Note Multiplicative loop is very important approach in IIT Mathematics.
Now,     (1 + sec θ) = 0
     
     
     
∴     fn(θ) = (tan θ / 2)(1 + sec θ)
      (1 + sec 2θ)(1 + sec 22θ)...(1+ sec 2nθ)
= (tan θ)(1 + sec 2θ)(1 + sec 22θ)...(1 + sec 2nθ)
      = tan 2θ.(1 + sec 22θ)...(1 + sec 2nθ)
      .........................................................
      .........................................................
      = tan(2nθ)
Now,
Therefore, (a) is the answer.

Therefore, (b) is the answer.

Therefore, (c) is the answer.

Therefore, (d) is the answer.
