    The general solution of \[{{\sin }^{2}}\theta \sec \theta +\sqrt{3}\tan \theta =0\] is

    A) \[\theta =n\pi +{{(-1)}^{n+1}}\frac{\pi }{3},\theta =n\pi ,n\in Z\]

    B) \[\theta =n\pi ,n\in Z\]

    C) \[\theta =n\pi +{{(-1)}^{n+1}}\frac{\pi }{3},n\in Z\]

    D) \[\theta =\frac{n\pi }{2},n\in Z\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    The given equation can be written as \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{{{\sin }^{2}}\theta }{\cos \theta }+\sqrt{3}\tan \theta =0\]\[\Rightarrow \] \[\tan \theta \sin \theta +\sqrt{3}\tan \theta =0\] \[\tan \theta (\sin \theta +\sqrt{3})=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\tan \theta =0\]  \[\Rightarrow \]\[\theta =n\pi ,\,n\in Z\].
