    The    solution    of    the    equation \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +\sin \theta +1=0,\] lies in the interval

    A)  \[\left( \frac{-\pi }{4},\frac{\pi }{4} \right)\]                   

    B)         \[\left( \frac{\pi }{4},\frac{3\pi }{4} \right)\]                  

    C)         \[\left( \frac{3\pi }{4},\frac{5\pi }{4} \right)\]               

    D)         \[\left( \frac{5\pi }{4},\frac{7\pi }{4} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    We have, \[{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +\sin \theta +1=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[1-{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +\sin \theta +1=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{\sin }^{2}}\theta -\sin \theta -2=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[(sin\theta +1)(sin\theta -2)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\sin \theta +1=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\sin \theta =-1\]    \[[\because \,\sin \theta \ne 2]\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\theta =\frac{3\pi }{2}\in \left( \frac{5\pi }{4},\frac{7\pi }{4} \right)\]
