                                 The minimum value of\[2\cos \theta +\frac{1}{\sin \theta }\] \[+\sqrt{2}\tan \theta \]the interval\[\left( 0,\frac{\pi }{2} \right)\]is:

    A)  \[2+\sqrt{2}\]                  

    B)         \[3\sqrt{2}\]

    C)  \[2\sqrt{3}\]            

    D)         \[3+\sqrt{2}\]

    E)  7

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let \[y=2\cos \theta +\frac{1}{\sin \theta }+\sqrt{2}\tan \theta \] \[\frac{dy}{d\theta }=-2\sin \theta -\cos ec\theta \cot \theta +\sqrt{2}{{\sec }^{2}}\theta \]                 \[=-2\sin \theta -\frac{\cos \theta }{\sin \theta }.\frac{1}{\sin \theta }+\sqrt{2}\frac{1}{{{\cos }^{2}}\theta }\] For extremum, put, \[\frac{dy}{dx}=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\theta =\frac{\pi }{4}\] Now, \[\frac{{{d}^{2}}y}{d{{x}^{2}}}=-2\cos \theta -[-\cos e{{c}^{3}}\theta +{{\cot }^{3}}\cos ec\theta ]\]                                 \[+\sqrt{2}.2\sec \theta \tan \theta \sec \theta \] \[=-2\cos \theta +\cos e{{c}^{3}}\theta -{{\cot }^{2}}\theta \cos ec\theta \]                                 \[+2\sqrt{2}{{\sec }^{2}}\theta \tan \theta \] \[>0\] for\[\theta =\frac{\pi }{4}\] \[\therefore \]y is minimum for \[\theta =\frac{\pi }{4}.\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\min (y)=2.\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}+\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}(1)\]                                 \[=2\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}=3\sqrt{2}\]
