    For what values of x is the equation \[2\,sin\,\theta =x+\frac{1}{x}\]valid?

    A) \[x=\pm 1\]         

    B) All real values of x

    C) \[-1<x<1\]       

    D) \[x>1\]and \[x<-1\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given: \[2\sin \theta =x+\frac{1}{x}\] We know that \[-1\le \sin \theta <1,\] \[-2\le 2\sin \theta <2\] So, \[-2\le x+\frac{1}{x}<2\] Thus, the given equation is valid only if \[x=\pm 1\]
