  • question_answer
    Let \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +b\] and \[si{{n}^{2}}\theta +b\] be roots of the equation \[{{x}^{2}}+4x+\frac{61}{16}=0.\]Then the equation whose roots are \[{{\tan }^{2}}\theta \] and \[co{{t}^{2}}\theta \] is 

    A) \[{{x}^{2}}-14x+1\]   

    B) \[{{x}^{2}}-14x+1=0\]

    C) \[{{x}^{2}}-10x+1\]   

    D)        None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +b+{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +b=-4\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,b=-\frac{5}{2}\] \[({{\cos }^{2}}\theta +b)\,({{\sin }^{2}}\theta +b)=\frac{61}{16}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,{{\cos }^{2}}\theta {{\sin }^{2}}\theta +b+{{b}^{2}}=\frac{61}{16}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,{{\cos }^{2}}\theta {{\sin }^{2}}\theta =\frac{61}{16}+\frac{5}{2}-\frac{25}{4}=\frac{61}{16}-\frac{15}{4}=\frac{1}{16}\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,{{\sin }^{2}}2\theta =\frac{1}{4}\] Sum of roots \[={{\tan }^{2}}\theta +{{\cot }^{2}}\theta =\frac{1-2{{\sin }^{2}}\theta {{\cos }^{2}}\theta }{{{\sin }^{2}}\theta {{\cos }^{2}}\theta }\] \[=\frac{1-\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}2\theta }{2}}{\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}2\theta }{4}}=\frac{1-\frac{1}{8}}{\frac{1}{16}}=14\] Product of roots = 1
