    If \[5{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +7{{\sin }^{2}}\theta -6=0\], then the general value of \[\theta \]is

    A) \[2n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}\]

    B) \[n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}\]

    C) \[n\pi +{{(-1)}^{n}}\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[5-5{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +7{{\sin }^{2}}\theta =6\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[2{{\sin }^{2}}\theta =1\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{\sin }^{2}}\theta =\frac{1}{2}={{\sin }^{2}}\left( \frac{\pi }{4} \right)\Rightarrow \theta =n\pi \pm \frac{\pi }{4}\].
