Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\pm \frac{\pi}{4}, \pm \frac{3 \pi}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & 8^{1+\cos ^2 x+\cos ^4 x+\ldots}=4^3 \Rightarrow 2^{3\left(\frac{1}{1-\cos ^2 x}\right)}=2^6 \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{3}{\sin ^2 x}=6 \Rightarrow \sin ^2 x=\frac{1}{2} \\ \Rightarrow & \sin x= \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \Rightarrow x= \pm \frac{\pi}{4}, \pm \frac{3…
