Q:

5 sin(x)+ 12 cos(x) + r is always greater than or equal to zero. What is the smallest value satisfied by 'r' ?

A) -13 B) 11
C) 13 D) -11
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 13

Explanation:

Given,

 5sinx + 12cosx ≥ -r 

13513sin x + 1213cos x  -rcosx) ≥ -r 

513= cosA => sinA =1213

 

=> 13(sinx cosA + sinA cosx) ≥ -r

 

=> 13(sin(x + A)) ≥ -r

 

we know that , -1 ≤ sin (angle) ≤ 1

 

=> 13sin (x + A) ≥ -13 rmin =13
