Question

The most general solution of  21+cosx+cosx2+cosx3+...=4   is    2nπ±πa,   thena=

Moderate
Solution

We have 21+cosx+cosx2+cosx3+...=4

1+cosx+cosx2+....... is in GP  S=a1-r 

                                                            211cosx=2211cosx=2cosx=12cosx=±12x=2nπ±π3,nz

                                                             a=3
