If the solution of the equation \(\log _{\cos x} \cot x+4 \log _{\sin x} \tan x=1, x \in\left(0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right), \quad\) is \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\alpha+\sqrt{\beta}}{2}\right)\), where \(\alpha, \beta\) are integers, then \(\alpha+\beta\) is equal to:

  1. A \(3\)
  2. B \(5\)
  3. C \(6\)
  4. D \(4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\log _{\cos x} \cot x+4 \log _{\sin x} \tan x=1\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{\ln \cos x-\ln \sin x}{\ln \cos x}+4 \frac{\ln \sin x-\ln \cos x}{\ln \sin x}=1\) \(\Rightarrow(\ln \sin x)^2-4(\ln \sin x)(\ln \cos x)+4(\ln \cos x)^2=1\) \(\Rightarrow \ln \sin x=2 \ln \cos x\)…
