Let \(|\cos \theta \cos (60-\theta) \cos (60-\theta)| \leq \frac{1}{8}, \theta \in[0,2 \pi]\) Then, the sum of all \(\theta \in[0,2 \pi]\), where \(\cos 3 \theta\) attains its maximum value, is :

  1. A \(9 \pi\)
  2. B \(18 \pi\)
  3. C \(6 \pi\)
  4. D  \(15 \pi\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(6 \pi\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that \(\cos \theta \cos ( 6 0^{ \circ } - \theta ) \cos (60^{\circ}+ \theta)=\frac{1}{4} \cos 3 \theta.\) So equation reduces to \(\left|\frac{1}{4} \cos 3 \theta\right| \leq \frac{1}{8}\) \( \Rightarrow|\cos 3 \theta| \leq \frac{1}{2} \)…
