    If \[f(\theta )=\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & \cos \theta  & 1  \\    -\sin \theta  & 1 & -\cos \theta   \\    -1 & \sin \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\]and A and B are respectively the maximum and the minimum values of f(q), then (A, B) is equal to:   [JEE Main Online Paper ( Held On 12 Apirl  2014 )

    A) \[(3, - 1)\]

    B) \[\left( 4,2-\sqrt{2} \right)\]

    C) \[\left( 2+\sqrt{2},2-\sqrt{2} \right)\]    

    D) \[\left( 2+\sqrt{2},-1 \right)\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Let \[f(\theta )=\left| \begin{matrix}    1 & \cos \theta  & 1  \\    -\sin \theta  & 1 & -\cos \theta   \\    -1 & \sin \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[=(1+\sin \theta \cos \theta )-\cos \theta (-\sin \theta -\cos \theta )+1(-{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +1)\]\[=1+\sin \theta \cos \theta +\sin \theta \cos \theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta -{{\sin }^{2}}\theta +1\] \[=2+2\sin \theta \cos \theta +\cos 2\theta \] \[=2+\sin 2\theta +\cos 2\theta \]                                           ?(1) Now, maximum value of (1) is \[2+\sqrt{{{1}^{2}}+{{1}^{2}}}=2+\sqrt{2}\] and minimum value of (1) is \[2-\sqrt{{{1}^{2}}+{{1}^{2}}}=2-\sqrt{2}.\]
