Let $S\, = \,\left\{ {\theta \, \in \,[ - \,2\,\pi ,\,\,2\,\pi ]\,  :\,2\,{{\cos }^2}\,\theta \, + \,3\,\sin \,\theta \, = \,0} \right\}$. Then the sum of the elements of $S$ is

A

$\frac{{13\,\pi }}{6}$

B

$2\pi $

C

$\pi $

D

$\frac{{5\,\pi }}{3}$

(JEE MAIN-2019)

Solution

$2\,(1 – {\sin ^2}\theta )\, + \,3\,\sin \,\theta \, = \,0$

$ \Rightarrow {\kern 1pt} 2\,{\sin ^2}\theta \, – \,3\sin \,\theta \, – \,2\, = \,0$

$ \Rightarrow (2\,\sin \theta  + 1)(\sin \theta  – 2) = 0$

$ \Rightarrow \sin \theta \, = \, – \frac{1}{2};\,\,\,\sin \theta  = 2$  (reject)

roots  :  $\pi \, + \,\frac{\pi }{6}\,,\,2\pi  – \frac{\pi }{6},\, – \frac{\pi }{6},\, – \pi  + \frac{\pi }{6}$

$\Rightarrow $ Sum off values $=\,2\pi $
