Question

If sum of all the solutions of the equation 8 cos x. cosπ6+x.cosπ6-x-12 = 1 in [0, π] is kπ, then k is equal to :

Options

A.

139

B.

89

C.

209

D.

23

Solution

8cos x cos2π6-sin2x-12=1

8 cos x 14-(1-cos2x)=1
8 cos x cos2x-34=1
 2cos3x = 1 cos3x = 12
 3x + 2nπ±π3, n  I
 x = 2nπ 3±π9
In x  [0, π] : x = π9, 2π3+π9, 2π3-π9 only
sum = 13π9
