    A value of \[\theta \in (0,\pi /3),\]for which \[\left| \begin{matrix}    1+{{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & 4\cos 6\theta   \\    {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & 1+{{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & 4\cos 6\theta   \\    {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & 1+4\cos 6\theta   \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0,\]is: [JEE Main 12-4-2019 Afternoon]

    A) \[\frac{7\pi }{24}\]                             

    B) \[\frac{\pi }{18}\]

    C) \[\frac{\pi }{9}\]

    D) \[\frac{7\pi }{36}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{R}_{1}}\to {{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}}\]           \[\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & -1 & 0  \\    {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & 1+{{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & 4\cos 6\theta   \\    {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & 1+4\cos 6\theta   \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\]           \[{{R}_{2}}\to {{R}_{2}}-{{R}_{3}}\]           \[\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & -1 & 0  \\    0 & 1 & -1  \\    {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & 1+4\cos 6\theta   \\ \end{matrix} \right|=0\]           \[\Rightarrow (1+4cos6\theta )+si{{n}^{2}}\theta +1(co{{s}^{2}}\theta )=0\]           \[1+2cos6\theta =0\Rightarrow \cos 6\theta =-1/2\]           \[6\theta =\frac{2\pi }{3}\Rightarrow \]
