Question

The number of all possible triplets (a1 ,a2 ,a3) such that a1 + a2 cos(2x) + a3 sin(x) = 0 for all x is

Options

A.0
B.1
C.3
D.

Solution

Given,     α1 + α2 cos 2x + α3 sin2 x = 0, for all x
⇒     α1 + α2 cos 2x + α3 = 0, for all x
⇒     cos 2x = 0, for all xc
⇒     and
⇒     , where k ∈ R
Hence, the solutions, are , where k is any real number.
Thus, the number of triplets is infinite.
