If m and n respectively are the numbers of positive and negative values of θ in the interval [-π,π] that satisfy the equation cos2θcosθ2=cos3θcos9θ2, then mn is equal to _______. [2023]
(25)
We have, cos2θ·cosθ2=cos3θ·cos9θ2
⇒2cos2θ·cosθ2=2cos9θ2·cos3θ
⇒cos5θ2+cos3θ2=cos15θ2+cos3θ2
⇒cos15θ2=cos5θ2⇒15θ2=2kπ±5θ2
⇒5θ=2kπ or 10θ=2kπ⇒θ=2kπ5 or θ=kπ5
⇒θ=kπ5
Also, -π≤kπ5≤π⇒-5≤k≤5 ∴ m=5, n=5
