MCQ
General solution of $eq^n\, 2tan\theta \, -\, cot\theta  =\, -1$ is
  • A
    $n\pi $
  • $n\pi \,-\, \pi /4$
  • C
    $n\pi \,+\, \pi /4$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$n\pi \,-\, \pi /4$
b
$2 \tan \theta-\frac{1}{\tan \theta} =-1 $

$2 \tan ^{2} \theta+\tan \theta-1 =0$

$(2 \tan \theta-1)(\tan \theta+1) =0$

$\tan \theta =-1 $

$\theta= n \pi-\pi / 4$
