Q.

The number of solutions of the equation 4sin2x-4cos3x+9-4cosx=0; x[-2π,2π] is :                      [2024]

1 0  
2 3  
3 1  
4 2  

Ans.

(1)

We have, 4sin2x-4cos3x+9-4cosx=0

4(1-cos2x)-4cos3x+9-4cosx=0

4cos3x+4cos2x+4cosx=13

Ist clear that L.H.S. 12 and never 13

  Solution does not exists.
