Question:medium

If $\tan\theta$ and $\cot\theta$ are two distinct roots of the equation $ax^2+bx+c=0, a\neq0, b\neq0$, then

Show Hint

When the roots of a quadratic equation are trigonometric functions of the same angle, use Vieta's formulas (sum and product of roots) and then simplify using trigonometric identities to find the relationship between the coefficients.

  • $\cos 2\theta = -\frac{2b}{c}$
  • $\sin 2\theta = -\frac{2c}{b}$
  • $\tan 2\theta = \frac{2b}{c}$
  • $\cot 2\theta = \frac{2c}{a}$
