JEE Main 2025 — 22 January, Evening Shift — Question 18

The sum of all values of θ∈[0,2π]\theta \in[0,2 \pi] satisfying 2sin⁡2θ=cos⁡2θ2 \sin ^{2} \theta=\cos 2 \theta and 2cos⁡2θ=3sin⁡θ2 \cos ^{2} \theta=3 \sin \theta is

  1. Option A:

    π2\frac{\pi}{2}

  2. Option B:

    4π4 \pi

  3. Option C:

    5π6\frac{5 \pi}{6}

  4. Option D:

    π\pi

    Correct

Answer: D

Step-by-step solution

2sin⁡2θ=cos⁡2θ2 \sin ^{2} \theta=\cos 2 \theta

2sin⁡2θ=1−2sin⁡2θ2 \sin ^{2} \theta=1-2 \sin ^{2} \theta

4sin⁡2θ=14 \sin ^{2} \theta=1

sin⁡2θ=14\sin ^{2} \theta=\frac{1}{4}

sin⁡θ=±12\sin \theta= \pm \frac{1}{2}

2cos⁡2θ=3sin⁡θ2 \cos ^{2} \theta=3 \sin \theta

2−2sin⁡2θ+3sin⁡θ−2=02-2 \sin ^{2} \theta+3 \sin \theta-2=0

(2sin⁡θ−1)(2sin⁡θ−2)=0(2 \sin \theta-1)(2 \sin \theta-2)=0

sin⁡θ=12\sin \theta=\frac{1}{2}

so common equation which satisfy both equations is

sin⁡θ=12\sin \theta=\frac{1}{2}

θ=π6,5π6(θ∈[0,2π])\theta=\frac{\pi}{6}, \frac{5 \pi}{6} \quad(\theta \in[0,2 \pi])

Sum =π=\pi
