Given the information, let's start by analyzing the trigonometric relationships involving cotx=11−5 where \frac{\pi}{2} < x < \pi .
We know that cotx is the reciprocal of tanx . Hence,
cotx=sinxcosx=11−5
From the above, it follows that:
cosx=−5k and sinx=11k
for some constant k . Using the Pythagorean identity:
cos2x+sin2x=1
Let’s substitute the values of cosx and sinx into this identity:
(−5k)2+(11k)2=1
25k2+11k2=1
36k2=1
k2=361
k=61 or k=−61
Therefore, we have two sets of values:
cosx=−65 and sinx=611
Given that x is in the interval (2π,π) , where sine is positive and cosine is negative, we take:
cosx=−65, sinx=611
Now consider the expression:
(sin211x)(sin6x−cos6x)+(cos211x)(sin6x+cos6x)
To solve this, first find 211x which lies in the interval (411π,211π) . Next, we simplify each term using sum-to-product identities:
Notice:
sin6x−cos6x=2sin(6x−4π)
sin6x+cos6x=2cos(6x−4π)
Using these, the given expression becomes:
(sin211x)2sin(6x−4π)+(cos211x)2cos(6x−4π)
This further simplifies using the angle sum identities:
=2(sin211xsin(6x−4π)+cos211xcos(6x−4π))
Utilizing the cosine of the difference identity:
sinAsinB+cosAcosB=cos(A−B)
Substitute A=211x and B=6x−4π :
cos(211x−(6x−4π))=cos(211x−6x+4π)=cos(−2x+4π)=cos(4π−2x)
Using the values of trigonometric functions:
cos(4π−2x)=2311+1
Thus, the correct option is:
Option B
2311+1
