If y = $$\sum\limits_{k = 1}^6 {k{{\cos }^{ - 1}}\left\{ {{3 \over 5}\cos kx - {4 \over 5}\sin kx} \right\}} $$,
then ${{dy} \over {dx}}$ at x = 0 is _______.
Answer (integer)
91
Solution
Put, $\cos \alpha = {3 \over 5},\sin \alpha = {4 \over 5}$<br><br>
$\therefore {3 \over 5}\cos kx - {4 \over 5}\sin \,kx$<br><br>
$= \cos \alpha .\cos kx - \sin \alpha .\sin kx$<br><br>
$= \cos \left( {\alpha + kx} \right)$<br><br>
So, $$y = \sum\limits_{k = 1}^6 {k{{\cos }^{ - 1}}\left( {\cos \left( {\alpha + kx} \right)} \right)} $$<br><br>
$= \sum\limits_{k = 1}^6 {\left( {{k^2}x + kx} \right)}$<br><br>
$\Rightarrow {{dy} \over {dx}} = \sum\limits_{k = 1}^6 {{k^2}}$<br><br>
$= {{6 \times 7 \times 13} \over 6} = 91$
