[MP PET 1997; UPSEAT 2002]

Options:

A) 2

B) 0

C) 4

D) 6

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ {{({{\sin }^{2}}\theta +{{\cos }^{2}}\theta )}^{3}}={{(1)}^{3}} $
$ \Rightarrow {{\sin }^{6}}\theta +{{\cos }^{6}}\theta +3,{{\sin }^{2}}\theta ,{{\cos }^{2}}\theta =1 $ and $ {{\sin }^{4}}\theta +{{\cos }^{4}}\theta +2,{{\sin }^{2}}\theta ,{{\cos }^{2}}\theta =1 $ Both gives, $ 2({{\sin }^{6}}\theta +{{\cos }^{6}}\theta )-3,({{\sin }^{4}}\theta +{{\cos }^{4}}\theta )+1=0 $ .
