    If\[x,\,\,y\in [0,\,\,2\pi ]\]then the total number of ordered pairs\[(x,\,\,y)\]satisfying\[x\cdot \cos y=1\]is equal to

    A)  1                                            

    B)  3

    C)  5                            

    D)         7

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\sin x\cdot \cos y=1\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\sin x=1,\,\,\cos y=1\] or            \[\sin x=-1,\,\,\cos y=-1\] if             \[\sin x=1,\,\,\cos y=1\] \[\Rightarrow x=\frac{\pi }{2},\,\,y=0,\,\,2\pi \] if             \[\sin x=-1,\,\,\cos y=-1\Rightarrow x=\frac{3\pi }{2},\,\,y=\pi \] Thus possible ordered pairs are                 \[\left( \frac{\pi }{2},\,\,0 \right),\,\,\left( \frac{\pi }{2},\,\,2\pi  \right),\,\,\left( \frac{3\pi }{2},\,\,\pi  \right)\]
