Q58 / 90 · JEE Main 2019 (12 Apr Shift 2) · Mathematics

If [x] denotes the greatest integer ≤x, then the system of linear equations [sinθ]x+[-cosθ]y=0, [cotθ]x+y=0

  • A
    has a unique solution if θ∈π2,2π3∪π,7π6
  • B
    have infinitely many solution if  θ∈π2,2π3∪π,7π6
  • C
    has a unique if θ∈π2,2π3 and have infinitely many solutions if θ∈π,7π6
  • Correct answer
    D
    have infinitely many solutions if θ∈π2,2π3 and has a unique solution if θ∈π,7π6

Solution

sin⁡θx+-cos⁡θy=0  and cos⁡θx+y=0  for infinite many solution
sin⁡θ-cos⁡θcot⁡θ 1=0
i.e. sinθ= -cosθ  cotθ   ...i
when θ∈π2, 2π3 then sinθ∈0, 12 ⇒ sinθ=0 and -cosθ∈0, 12 ⇒ -cosθ=0 and  

cotθ∈-13, 0 ⇒ cotθ=-1
When θ∈π, 7π6 then sinθ∈-12, 0 ⇒ sinθ=-1 and -cosθ∈32, 1 ⇒-cosθ=0 and 
cotθ∈3,  ∞ ⇒ cotθ∈2, 3, 4,...∞
When θ∈π2, 2π3  then the equation i satisfied therefore infinitely many solution.
When θ∈π, 7π6  then the equation i not satisfied therefore unique solution.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
