    \[\cot \theta =\sin 2\theta (\theta \ne n\pi \], n is integer), if \[\theta =\] [BIT Ranchi 1991; Pb. CET 1991]

    A) \[{{45}^{o}}\] and \[{{60}^{o}}\]

    B) \[{{45}^{o}}\]and \[{{90}^{o}}\]

    C) \[{{45}^{o}}\]only

    D) \[{{90}^{o}}\]only

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

      \[\cot \theta =\sin 2\theta ,\text{  }(\theta \ne n\pi )\Rightarrow 2{{\sin }^{2}}\theta \cos \theta =\cos \theta \] \[\Rightarrow \]  \[\cos \theta =0\] or \[{{\sin }^{2}}\theta =\frac{1}{2}={{\sin }^{2}}\left( \frac{\pi }{4} \right)\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\theta =(2n+1)\frac{\pi }{2}\] or \[\theta =n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\theta ={{90}^{o}}\] and \[{{45}^{o}}\].
