Question:

If $7 \cos ^2 \theta+3 \sin ^2 \theta=6,0^{\circ}<\theta<90^{\circ}$, then the value of $\frac{\cot ^2 2 \theta+\sec ^2 2 \theta}{\tan ^2 2 \theta-\sin ^2 2 \theta}$ is:

Options:

$\frac{52}{27}$

$\frac{26}{15}$

$\frac{28}{27}$

$\frac{49}{45}$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{52}{27}$

Explanation:

7 cos²θ + 3 sin²θ = 6

4cos²θ + 3cos²θ + 3 sin²θ = 6

{   sin²θ + cos²θ = 1 }

4cos²θ  = 3

cosθ= \(\frac{ √3}{2}\)

{ we know, cos30º= \(\frac{ √3}{2}\) }

So, θ = 30º

Now,

\(\frac{ cot²2θ + sec²2θ}{tan²2θ- sin²2θ}\)

= \(\frac{ cot²60º + sec²60º}{tan²60º- sin²60º}\)

= \(\frac{ 1/3 + 4}{3- 3/4}\)

= \(\frac{ 13/3}{9/4}\)

= \(\frac{ 52}{27}\)
