If x and y are the solutions of the equation 12 sin x + 5 cos x = 2y 2 -8y + 21, then the value of
is (Given, |x |<
)
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
5
LHS = 12sinx + 5cosx 
i.e. [-13,13] i.e.
maximum value of LHS is 13
RHS = 2 (y 2 - 4y + 4) + 13
= 2(y-2) 2 + 13
RHS
13
Roots of the equation exist if LHS = RHS = 13.
RHS = 13 when y = 2
LHS = 13
12sinx + 5cosx = 13
