Answer:

Correct Answer: 30. $x=-\pi,-\frac{\pi}{2},-\frac{\pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3}, \pi$

Solution:

  1. Given that,

$2 \cos x+2 \cos 2 x+\sin 2 x+\sin 3 x+\sin x-2 \sin x=0$

$\therefore \quad 2 \cos x+2 \cos 2 x+2 \sin x \cos x+(\sin 3 x-\sin x)=0$

$\Rightarrow \quad 2 \cos x+2 \cos 2 x+2 \sin x \cos x+2 \cos 2 x \sin x=0$

$\Rightarrow \quad 2 \cos x(1+\sin x)+2 \cos 2 x(1+\sin x)=0$

$\Rightarrow \quad 2(1+\sin x)(\cos x+\cos 2 x)=0$

$\Rightarrow \quad 4(1+\sin x) \cos \frac{3 x}{2} \cos \frac{x}{2}=0$

$\therefore \quad 1+\sin x=0$

or $\quad \cos \frac{3 x}{2}=0$ or $\cos \frac{x}{2}=0$

If $1+\sin x=0$, then $\sin x=-1$

$\therefore \quad x=2 n \pi+\frac{3 \pi}{2}$

If $\cos \frac{3 x}{2}=0$, then $\frac{3 x}{2}=(2 n+1) \frac{\pi}{2}$

$\therefore \quad x=(2 n+1) \frac{\pi}{3}$

And if $\cos \frac{x}{2}=0$, then $\frac{x}{2}=(2 n+1) \frac{\pi}{2}$

$\therefore \quad x=(2 n+1) \pi$

But given interval is $[-\pi, \pi]$.

Put $n=-1$ in Eq. (i), $x=-\frac{\pi}{2}$

Put $n=0,1,-1,-2$ in Eq. (ii), $x=\frac{\pi}{3}, \pi-\frac{\pi}{3},-\pi$

Hence, the solution in $[-\pi, \pi]$ are $-\pi,-\frac{\pi}{2},-\frac{\pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{3}, \pi$.
