If \(\cos \,\alpha  + \cos \,\beta  = \frac{3}{2}\) and \(\sin \,\alpha  + \sin \,\beta  = \frac{1}{2}\) and \(\theta \) is the the arithmetic mean of \(\alpha \) and \(\beta \) , then \(\sin \,2\theta  + \cos \,2\theta \) is equal to 

  1. A \(\frac{3}{5}\)
  2. B \(\frac{7}{5}\)
  3. C \(\frac{4}{5}\)
  4. D \(\frac{8}{5}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{7}{5}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\cos \alpha+\cos \beta=\frac{3}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow 2 \cos \frac{\alpha+\beta}{2} \cos \frac{\alpha-\beta}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\) ..... \((i)\) and \(\sin \alpha+\sin \beta=\frac{1}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow 2 \sin \frac{\alpha+\beta}{2} \cos \frac{\alpha-\beta}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\) .....…
