Detailed Solution

The given equation is possible if sin(1x)0 and cosx0. From the given equation, on squaring both the sides we get sin(1x)=cosx=sin(π2x)
1x=+(1)n(π2x) where (nI) But for n=2m,(nI) we get no value of
1x=(2m+1)ππ2+xx=124m+14π Now, m0x<0
if m=1x=12+3π4 sin(1x)=sin123π4=sin12+π4<0
Hence rejectedIf m=2x=12+7π4
sin(1x)=sin(12+π42π)>0 and cosx=cos{12(π4,12)}
Hence, x=12+7π4 is the smallest +ve root of the given equation.
So, α=12+7π4=12+74×227=6
