engineering mathematics MCQ #4954

  1. Question 1

    Q1. The general solution of tan(2x) = cot(x) is

    • A) nπ/2 + π/6
    • B) nπ/2 - π/6
    • C) nπ + π/6
    • D) nπ - π/6

    Answer: nπ/2 + π/6

    Explanation: tan(2x) = 1/tan(x) gives tan(2x)tan(x) = 1, simplifying to 2x = nπ + π/2 - x, hence 3x = nπ + π/2.
