    The solution \[|\cos x|\,\,=\cos x-2\sin x\] of is:

    A) \[x=n\pi \]

    B) \[x=n\pi +\frac{\pi }{4}\]

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

    D) \[x=(2n+1)\pi +\frac{\pi }{4},\] \[n\in I\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[|\cos x|\,\,=\cos x-2\sin x\]
    Case I when \[\cos x\ge 0\]
                then \[\cos x=\cos x-2\sin x\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\sin x=0\]        \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=n\pi \]
    But \[\cos x>0\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\cos x=1,\]\[x=2\,m\pi \]
    Case II when \[\cos x<0\]
                then \[-\cos x=\cos x-2\sin x\]
                \[\cos x=\sin x\]  \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\tan x-1\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[\tan x=1,\]\[\cos x<0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=(2n+1)\pi +\frac{\pi }{4}\]   \[n\in I\]
