    If \[x=\frac{n\pi }{2}\], satisfies the equation \[\sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2}=1-\sin x\] and the inequality \[\left| \frac{x}{2}-\frac{\pi }{2} \right|\le \frac{3\pi }{4}\], then

    A) \[n=-1,0,3,5\]

    B) \[n=1,2,4,5\]

    C) \[n=0,2,4\]

    D) \[n=-1.1,3,5\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\because -\frac{3\pi }{4}\le \frac{x}{2}-\frac{\pi }{2}\le \frac{3\pi }{4}\Rightarrow \,\,-\frac{\pi }{2}\le x\le \frac{5\pi }{2}\]\[\Rightarrow \]      But given \[x=\frac{n\pi }{2}\Rightarrow n=-1,0,1,2,3,4,5\]
    \[\sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2}=1-\sin x\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[\sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2}={{\left( \sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2} \right)}^{2}}\]\[\Rightarrow \left( \sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2} \right)\left[ \sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2}-1 \right]=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]either \[\tan \frac{x}{2}=1\] or \[\sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2}=1.\]
    If \[\tan \frac{x}{2}=1\Rightarrow x=\frac{\pi }{2},\frac{5\pi }{2}\Rightarrow n=1,5\,\,;\]
    If \[\sin \frac{x}{2}-\cos \frac{x}{2}=1\Rightarrow \sin \left( \frac{x}{2}-\frac{\pi }{4} \right)\]
    \[=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\sin \frac{\pi }{4}\Rightarrow \frac{x}{2}-\frac{\pi }{4}=k\pi +{{(-1)}^{k}}\frac{\pi }{4}\] for odd values of k, \[x=2k\pi \]
    \[\Rightarrow x=0,\,\,2\pi ,\]         \[\therefore n=0,4\]         for even values of k, \[x=2k\pi +\pi \]
    \[\Rightarrow x=\pi ,\]     \[\therefore n=2\]                        Hence overall \[n=1,2,4,5\]
