Specific Solution of Equation Question 1:
The number of solutions of the equation
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Specific Solution of Equation Question 1 Detailed Solution
Concept:
- Range of Sine Function: The output of the sine function is always between −1 and 1, i.e., sin(θ) ∈ [−1, 1] for all real θ.
- Quadratic Function: A quadratic function of the form ax2 + bx + c represents a parabola. If a > 0, the parabola opens upward, and its minimum value occurs at x = −b / 2a.
- Key Idea: To find how many solutions exist for sin(expression) = quadratic, we determine how many values of x make the quadratic expression lie within [−1, 1].
Calculation:
Given,
Let f(x) = x2 − 4x + 6
Minimum of f(x) occurs at:
x = 4 / 2 = 2
⇒ f(2) = (2)2 − 4×2 + 6 = 4 − 8 + 6 = 2
Since the parabola opens upward, the range of f(x) is [2, ∞)
But, sin(θ) ∈ [−1, 1]
⇒ The equation has solutions only if x2 − 4x + 6 ∈ [−1, 1]
But f(x) ≥ 2 for all x, and 2 > 1
⇒ No value of x satisfies f(x) ∈ [−1, 1]
∴ Number of real solutions is zero.
