Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2 n \pi+\frac{7 \pi}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given trigonometric equations are \(\tan \theta=-1\) and \(\cos \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) \(\begin{array}{ll}\Rightarrow & \sin \theta=-1 / \sqrt{2} \\ \Rightarrow & \sin \theta=\sin \frac{7 \pi}{4} \\ \therefore & \theta=2 n \pi+\frac{7 \pi}{4}\end{array}\)
